>using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;

namespace HostsManipulation {
   class Program {

       private static string hosts_file = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.System) + @"\drivers\etc\hosts";

       static void Main(string[] args) {
           manipulate();
           try
           {
           Console.Read();
           }
           catch(Exeption e)
           {}   

       }


       private static void manipulate() {
           try {
               StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(hosts_file);
               string file_string = sr.ReadToEnd();
               sr.Close();
               file_string += "127.0.0.1      google.de\n";
               StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(hosts_file);
               sw.Write(file_string);
               sw.Close();
               Console.WriteLine("Done!");
           } catch(Exception e) {
               Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
           }
       }
