Fix for GameSpy server shutdown

You can fix the delays caused by the recent Gamespy shutdown if you add this line to your hosts file:
0.0.0.0 peerchat.gamespy.com
So if you have the following 3 lines at the bottom of your hosts file (located for most windows users at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts) you should have a quick and easy log in:
0.0.0.0 nwmaster.bioware.com
0.0.0.0 nwn.master.gamespy.com
0.0.0.0 peerchat.gamespy.com
