Fortunately there is an opportunity to block such websites in your computer. There are different ways of blocking of certain websites: in settings of the browser, the network screen (firewall-ohms), an antivirus and the ban of opening of the address of the website in the hosts file.
It is required to you
- the computer, the browser, antvirirus (optional), firewall (optional), the rights of the administrator to the computer.
Instruction
1. Blocking of the website in settings of the browser:
In the Internet Explorer browser come into the "properties" — "Internet Options" menu — the contents tab — to click "include" — "the resolved nodes" — enter in the field the address of the website which you want to block (for example sait.ru) and "never" click. Perhaps the browser will request to enter the password. Enter the simple password not to forget.
2. In the Opera browser the blocking of the website is carried out by the following actions: in the menu of the browser turn into "Settings" — "In addition" — "The blocked contents" and add the website address.
3. For the GoogleChrome and Firefox browsers there are special additions of Blocksite (for FireFox) and Personal Blocklist (for Chrome). You can enable these additions on the official sites of these browsers. They are rather simple in use and setup. It is possible to block the website in settings of these plug-ins, having just added the website address in the field and having clicked "add the filter".
However blocking of the address of the website in settings of the browser not the best way is also suitable only for those who got used to use one browser. And in settings not of each browser there is an opportunity to block the objectionable website.
4. Therefore most optimum to block the websites or in settings of the network screen of your antivirus or in settings of your personal firewall-a.
Recently there were many free versions of these programs (for example NetPolicce, Jetico, etc.). Let's not stop on their settings, t. to they differ from each other a little and their detailed description will take a lot of time. It is possible to obtain detailed information on their setup on the official sites of these programs and even (on some of them) receive online consultation of specialists. This way optimum approaches if you want to block access to some websites the to children.
5. And at last the last, but not less effective way to block access to some addresses of the websites is an editing of the configuration file hosts.
hosts is the text file containing the database of domain names and used at their broadcasting in the network addresses of nodes. The request to this file has a priority before accessing DNS servers. Unlike DNS, contents of the file are controlled by the computer administrator.
Open the C:\\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts c помощью обычного блокнота file. Before it make sure that in settings of the folder the display of the hidden and system files is included. Enter the next line in the end of the hosts file:
127.0.0.1 sait.ru
where 127.0.0.1 is the IP address of your local host, and site.ru — the address of the website which you want to block. If you want to block many websites, then each entry in the hosts file should be begun with a new line. Do not forget to save entry in the file.
Now, if you gather the address of the website blocked by you in a line of the browser, then your computer will transport you to your local address and you will see the inscription "The Server Is Unavailable".
