Firewall vs entry in Hosts file ????
What is the difference (that is better) between having an entry in the "hosts" file, or a "rule" in a firewall application when trying to block inbound traffic from a known website or company.

Do it at the firewall. In fact use OpenDNS for it's web filtering capabilities. It's free, easy, and has tons of built in categories to make blocking non-sense a lot easier.
