Argali White & Yellow Search Program

I'm on dial-up--my ISP is some one I found on the net. I use Google's toolbar, but have disabled it. I downloaded Argali search program just for fun. Is anyone familiar with it? It was recommended by Kim Komando. When I try to run it, I get an error message saying I've blocked ads on my computer. I wrote to them asking how to unblock them and they said, "Argali displays its ads in exactly the same way as regular web sites (e.g. Yahoo, MSN, Weather.com et al) do it. Thus you block/unblock ads for Argali in exactly the same way how you do it for regular web sites. Most likely, your firewall/internet filter/"hosts" file is blocking Argali access to one of its ad providers. Unfortunately, we cannot give you an advice on how to turn ad blocking off -- the blocking is done from outside of Argali and Argali can only detect that ads are blocked but it cannot know how it is done in your computer." I have no firewall that I know of. I don't really understand what the Hosts file is or does. Help if you can. Thanks.
