If you're on windows XP:
Add this line to your hosts file (located at c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc)
127.0.0.1 *.myspace.com
If you are using a linksys router:
login to the control panel (http://192.168.1.1 by default)
Enter 'admin' as the password (by default)
Go to the access restriction tab
enter *.myspace.com in the space provided at the bottom of the page.

There are a couple of ways...
If you're running IE, you can add it to the "restricted sites" in the 'Security' tab of the Options window.
If you're running a firewall, there could be an option for restricting sites also.
These methods are also among the first place that people will look if they want to re-enable access to the site. A better place to hide the "block" is in the hosts file. To do this, open Notepad, then open the file:
C:\windows\
system32\
drivers\
etc\
hosts
then at the end of that file, put the following lines:
127.0.0.1 www.myspace.com
127.0.0.1 login.myspace.com
127.0.0.1 login2.myspace.com
This will prevent the site from being loaded, as well as any attempts to login to the site (login.myspace.com) if someone finds a work-around to viewing the homepage.
What this does: This will tell your computer that in order to get to the "myspace" servers, it needs to go to the IP address 127.0.0.1, which is really your own computer. Since myspace doesn't live on your computer, the browser will fail to load any of the data. It will just say the site can't be found.
Hope this helps!

strongly recommend NetDog : http://www.netdogsoft.com
it's easy, just add "myspace" to "always blocked website list" in NetDogAdmin.exe, you can set a password for NetDogAdmin.exe, none will be able to open it
