Make yourself a script file called 'RenHosts.bat'[1] and place it somewhere convenient, I personally have mine pinned to the start menu. This allows you to "easily" turn your modified HOSTS file on/off.
You'll need to right click and run the script as Administrator since it is accessing your System32 folder.
