Trick To Block Any Website Without Any Software

Here is the trick to block any site easily without using any software. If you want to block any site you can block by using any software or just by changing DNS server and making few settings but if you don’t want to use any additional software/application or service then here is the way for it.

Just follow this simple steps :-

Step 1.  Go to the C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc.

Step 2. Find the file named “HOSTS”

Step 3. Open it using notepad.

Step 4. The completion of the former step will show you the hosts file open in text format. Carefully notice that there is a presence of a host IP and host name at the bottom the document.

Step 5. Now at the end enter the unknown host IP 127.0.0.1 and the corresponding URL that you want to restrict. For example if you want to restrict a website named ABC.com, then type 127.0.0.1 and the corresponding website ABC.com and www.ABC.com  .You can do this on multiple website following the same procedure, and eventually save the text file.

That’s it, Now connect the internet and then try to open the restricted website. It would definitely not open.
