Using the hosts file is really cludgy old tech and playing catchup after the fact.
You might want to try using DNS services with built in site blocking. OpenDNS does site blocking but it's more robust in commercial products. Researching this, I ran into Norton ConnectSafe (dns.norton.com), free for home use. It has porn and non-family blocking options with specific DNS numbers. They maintain the site list for you.
