Have you ever wondered how to block web sites from being accessed by others who use your computer? Are you trying to block web site access from yourself for any reason? Here is a quick guide to blocking sites. Why would I want to block a website? There are several reasons. If young children use your computer to access the Web, you might want to block them from accessing certain websites that contain content meant for older users or that could steal personal information. If you use your computer at work and want to keep co-workers from visiting certain sites, you can change your browser settings to block those web sites. Also, you can protect your block settings with a password that only you know. This password is different from the password that you use to log in to your computer, so someone can use your computer without being able to change your blocked site settings. Another reason to block a website is if it tries to steal your privacy by installing spyware or other malware on your computer. By blocking the site, you will be protected against its attacks, no matter where you surf on the Web. How do you block a website from access? Simply go to your Web browser settings and block it! In Internet Explorer, you can block a site by going to the Tools menu, clicking on Internet Options, and visiting the Security tab. Unblocking a website is as simple as blocking it. Simply navigate to the place where you have blocked it, and remove it from the block list. Visit ParentalGuidance.org for more information on blocking websites.
