Here are a few ways to accomplish it. They make use of the HOSTS file and registry settings among other techniques. (Disclosure: I'm a retired Microsoft Senior Technical Writer, i.e., I know enough not to trust them). http://www.ghacks.net/2015/08/...

They're just preoccupied with stealing our stuff. "Ex-TSA agent: We steal from travelers all the time...A TSA agent convicted of stealing more than $800,000 worth of goods from travelers said this type of theft is “commonplace” among airport security. Almost 400 TSA officers have been fired for stealing from passengers since 2003." http://rt.com/usa/tsa-stealing... http://www.cnn.com/2015/04/13/... Solution?

I agree with you and applaud the way you've played along with the joke that is Florida. Let me explain. Florida, that is, the area of the USA that we think of as Florida is a fiction. When I was a boy I was taught that Florida was the place where old Jews (of which I am one) go to die. When I was an adult the Bush/Gore election fiasco conclusively proved that was true. There is no there there. Florida is a fictitious territory invented by Philip K. Dick for one of his paranoid dystopian novels. The word is that Ridley Scott is quietly working on a movie about the imaginary state. Its working title is Epimetheus. What about all those maps of the USA that show a phallic projection down there? They're fictitious too. Florida is not real! get over it. [Incidentally, Texas isn't real either, which is far easier to demonstrate than what I'm saying here.] If such a place as Florida really existed then neither the fictitious antihero George Zimmerman nor this bizarre episode would have happened. If Florida hadn't already been invented by Philip K. Dick then Andy Borowitz would have invented the imaginary state by now. The other commenters are either fools, Republicans (okay, that was redundant), or also playing along with the joke. Now you know.

Flash memory isn't the Rover's problem. It's still running XP and there are no more hot fixes. At this point the Rover's system has massive "bit rot," not to mention that it's been hacked countless times by the Chinese. Undeterred by this seemingly insurmountable problem, Microsoft has donated a Windows Phone for communications back to earth and a Surface Pro to power the Rover "because it's just like a computer." They didn't say just who's going to operate their touch-only interfaces. It all makes perfect sense because nobody in their right mind buys those things down on earth. Thus, new markets like Mars are vital to both products' successes. You might wonder how they will get into space. Microsoft has also kept mum on that, but the word is that there is still so much gas leftover from the Ballmer era that achieving liftoff is a trivial undertaking. -- Cary R., Microsoft Senior Technical Writer (ret.)
