A hidden file in Unix is any file that starts with a '.' in the name. Any utility that creates files can create a hidden file. Note: it is important to know that a hidden file is usually one that doesn't need to be shown in a directory listing all the time so unless you use the special option to show them they won't show up in a listing. Other than that, they have no special attributes.
The host file in Unix is usually located in the /etc directory.
Unix is a text file, not a web browser. :)
