He meant right click Wordpad. Not the HOSTS file.

Try right-clicking Notepad and Run as Administrator. I'd rather use Notepad
as Wordpad might add some formatting which you do not want in this text
file.

I actually use EditPad Lite as the text editor, as it has a lot of useful
features that Notepad lacks. http://www.editpadpro.com/editpadlite.html

If you want a really decent HOSTS file, with loads of crap sites included,
try this: http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/
