    Steps

    1] Browse C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
    2] Find the file named "HOSTS"
    3] Open it in notepad
    4] Under "127.0.0.1 localhost" Add 127.0.0.2 www.sitenameyouwantblocked.com , and that site will no longer be accessable.
    5] Done!

    -So-

    127.0.0.1 localhost
    127.0.0.2 www.blockedsite.com

    - www.blockedsite.com is now unaccessable


    For every site after that you want to add, just add "1" to the last number in the internal ip (127.0.0.2) and then the addy like before.

    IE:
    127.0.0.3 www.blablabla.com
    127.0.0.4 www.blablabla.com
    127.0.0.5 www.blablabla.com

    This also works with banner sites, just find the host name of the server with the banners and do the same thing with that addy.

    Hoep this small tutorial could keep you going in simple way of blocking websites.
