How To Block Websites On Your Computer Without Software

When you surf the web its possible that you may potentially visit a unsafe website. Most of the time it happens that you don't want some sites to load in your computer mostly the porn sites. But someone using your computer may visit those sites. These site not only distracts the users but also (most of the times) installs viruses or worms in your computer which later leads to malfunctioning and slowing down of your computer.
However, you may block any website on your pc without using any software.

To do this you have to follow the simple steps on your computer:

• Open My Computer and open your root drive(the drive where your operating system is installed).
• Then go to RootDrive:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc
• Select the hosts file
and press Enter, then 'Open With' dialog box appears. From there select Notepad and then click OK.
• Go to the end of the notepad where you opened the hosts file
• Now Just add the line 127.0.0.1 website_you_want_to block
  For example: add the line 127.0.0.1 example.com at the end and example.com will be blocked.

Now just Save The Notepad and the website you provided will be blocked.
Note: To unblock that site open the hosts file as mentioned above and just delete the line 127.0.0.1 website_that_is currently_blocked_by_you and save the notepad. For example: delete the line 127.0.0.1 example.com from the notepad and example.com will be available to visit.
