    Default Blocking websites

    Is it possible to block just a particular website from being accesed on a particular computer?

    There is software that can do it for you or you can add the website to your windows HOSTS file. Do a quick google search and you should figure out how to use the HOSTS file rather easily.

    Are you using a router? Most routers have the ability to block certain domains from being accessed, and it's password protected by you, so there's no way kiddo can get around it.

    Just don't use his name as a password.

    I believe that this would come in handy...

    Open in notepad: c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (if you're not using XP, just search for a file called hosts (no extension) on your computer)

    Add these two lines to the end of the file:

    127.0.0.1 anaheimducks.com
    127.0.0.1 www.anaheimducks.com

    Then close and save changes. Now clear your cache and history, and you are safe from links to anaheimducks.com.

    You can do the same thing with any other site you don't ever want to visit, such as YAHOO, tubgirl.com, popup ad hosts, or yodastoilet.com.
