Blocking a website

Hi all

I am new to this and really need your help. I need to block a web site -
You tube
and don't know how to doit. Is there anyone that can help me. You can
respond to
my e-mail address Rojeka1@yahoo.com.

Thanks so much!!

You can go to Internet Options, Security, Restricted Sites and enter the web
address there. Also, while in Internet Options click on the Content tab,
click on the Enable button and select Approved Sites. You can block the
website here also. You can also use Parental Controls.

Many Anti-Virus and Anti-Malware programs also have the ability to block the
website, or you could block it using the outbound control of your firewall.

Have a nice day.

In addition to the GUI method already offered, you can also use a text
editor, such as Vista's built-in Notepad to edit the
C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc\Host file to add the following line:

127.0.0.1 www.youtube.com

Just be careful when saving the changed file that Notepad does *not*
add a .txt extension to the file name.

The host file is a stop gap measure, but you can use it.
