No Comment - Post a comment

It's very simple to block out certain websites that you do not want to open up on your computer.You can do this by clicking the Start button and select Run. Type the following: c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

Windows might ask you which program should be used to open this application. Click on Wordpad.

It will open up a new window on your screen showing some text information. At the end of the last line of the file, press the Enter key. Type 127.0.0.1 and the name of the website you want to block.

Example: 127.0.0.1 google.com

Save the file. The websites that you have put in this list will not open up on your system.

In case you want to open them, go back to the text file using the same commands and remove the names you have typed. Save the file.

Normal shutdown can take a lot of time if you have programs or background services open on your system. To shut down quickly, save all your open documents, open the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete, press Shut Down from the menu and choose Turn off.
