How Parents Can Block Certain Websites from Children ?

To block websites on your home computer without investing in expensive software, here’s the trick (for Windows PCs)

Step 1: Disable Antivirus
  Click the Start button and select Run. Now type the following text in that Run box:
 c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Right click on the host file and select open with Notepad 
Step 2: Just goto the last line of the file, hit the enter key and type the following:
127.0.0.1 orkut.com
127.0.0.1 facebook.com
127.0.0.1 myspace.com
Save the file and exit. That’s it. None of the above sites will now open on your computer.
You can block as many websites as you like with the above technique. If you want to remove the ban later, open the same file as mentioned in Step 1 and delete the above lines.
Just remember you need a Administrator Account to do this .
any error please comment ..
