			It's quite simple on mac. Run terminal then type in "$ sudo nano /private/etc/hosts" then add the IP and the web address. Save it then VOILA!   
The only thing I still can't get working are on Mobile devices. Now I can't surf RS while I'm on the can!

			Is it me or is the mobile RS still not available?  I would like to surf it while I am at work.  I prefer not to use the work computers to do that because they monitor what each person does on their computer.
