Is it possible to block access to some Websites?

Question

I want to block the very inappropriate "myspace" from any kids that are getting on this computer.

I have IE 7, and Firefox on here. Ususally everyone uses IE 7.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Add the site to Restricted Sites
here is how you do it:
In Internet Explorer
Click on Tools>>>>>>Internet Options
Under Security Tab
click on Restricted Sites
then Click on Sites button it open up a screen
type *.myspace.com in the Add this Web site to the zone box then click on Add button
it will display *.myspace.com in the Web sites: list below that
click on OK button
then again OK button
this should block the myspace website

Answer 2

Well I don't think myspace is that inappropriate, but refraining form moral debate.
You probably should get a third-party software add-on compatible with your browsers to block only certain content.
Or, if your using firefox, you can go through this painful process:

Hope it helps.
Note: Many kids can get around any site blockers you put on the computer, just to let you know.
