"Whenever you type an address, your system will check the hosts file for 
its presence; if it is present there, you will be directed to the 
corresponding IP. If the hostname is not defined in the hosts file, your 
system will check the DNS server of your internet to look up for the 
corresponding IP and redirect you accordingly."
