Well are you trying to block sites pertaining to certain keywords (like adult oriented sites getting blocked for children's computers, etc?) or just specific sites.
There are a couple of ways to do this.
1. User your firewall to block sites. Most firewalls should allow for this. Or if you have a router, you might be able to add those sites to your router.
2. Edit the host file:
- Using Notepad or some other text editor, open the file named "hosts", which is located in the following directory:
- Windows XP = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC
- Windows 2K = C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC
- Windows 98\ME = C:\WINDOWS
- Add the following on its own line in the hosts file, using the sites that apply to you:
127.0.0.1 metafilter.com flickr.com - Save and quit.
3. Get some software like Cybersitter.
There are other options too, but those, plus the adblock extension are some of the easier ones.
