How I will block different unwanted website from my computer?

You can have two ways to do it but if the other one has met the requirements.

Solution 1

Open a web browser on a computer that is directly connected in your router and enter in the address bar 192.168.0.1. This will let you enter the setup of your router. There you can look and explore the router and have the websites block there.

Solution 2

Only possible if your have the Windows Vista or 7 installed in your computer with the help of Windows Live Family Safety downloadable from the Microsoft website. Create a different user account in the computer that your kids are using. Setup the parental control for them. You can control their time, programs to open and the website they go in to. You can see it on the Control Panel then User Account.

How I will block different unwanted website from my computer?

Hello,

If you want to block the different unwanted websites from the computer, just simply go to the start button and then click the control panel and go to the windows firewall.  Select that and then simply turn on the Windows firewall to protect any unwanted websites or maybe to conform only to you, if you want to open this website.

The windows Firewall can help you prevent any intruders and malicious software from gaining access to the computer, through the Internet or in the network and then if you’re in the public places such as airports or coffee shops, you can block all connection programs that are not on the list of allowed programs  using the firewall.

How I will block different unwanted website from my computer?

If you have kids and you want to block certain websites from accidentally getting accessed, there are different ways to do it. First option is the “hosts” file located on the system drive. To try this, open Windows Explorer then navigate to “C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc”. Here, right-click the “hosts” file and select “Open”. In the “Open with” dialog, select “Notepad” or any text editor application you have.

Once the file is opened, scroll to the bottom of the page and enter this string:

• 127.0.0.1 bandicam.com

Replace without quotes “bandicam.com” with the site’s address that you want to block. If you want to block multiple websites, enter the address or domain name in separate lines:

• 127.0.0.1 bandicam.com
• 127.0.0.1 bandisoft.com

Save and close the file then restart the computer. This should block the website on the computer. Another way is to use or install a firewall.
