Chrome ignores /etc/hosts?

Hi Guys - has anyone else had trouble with Google Chrome ignoring ad
blocking? I've done the /etc/hosts thing on my netbook (don't want to
run a whole local DNS server on here), and the blocking works
perfectly in Firefox 3.0/3.5. But Google Chrome ignores it and finds
all the ad sites anyway. How can I dissuade it?

Cheers
AL
