Tips to block some sites in pc.

Block My PC From Visiting Sites

Hello Nairalanders,

I got a mail from a member in the forum saying he wants to block his computer from visiting some sites, and so I decided to post the procedures incase anyone needs similar asssistance,

Get to System32 on your windows system.
For ease paste this into the address bar of an open windows on your computer provided Windows is installed on Drive C.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc (without quotes)

See "PIC1" for assistance*

Find the file "hosts" and remove the read-only attribute*

See "PIC2"

Apply and click ok to save*

Open the file with notepad,
Scrol to the bottom.

Put this number "127.0.0.1"
Give spaces and type in the website address

See "PIC3"

After this, Select Save

Don't forget to apply the read-only attribute.

Good Luck

NOTE: There is a more comprehensive method on my blog
