How to block facebook? - d_lee86 - 11-09-2012 08:13 PM

I want to block access to facebook cos my brother spends too much time on it.

I have windows xp and have tried tools>internet options>content>content advisor.. but the problem is when i enter facebook as the site to block access and enter ok , when i go to other sites , i cannot gain access to ANY other site without the password. Seems like when i block facebook, it blocks everything else. =(

I simply want to block access to facebook and facebook itself.


Please helpppp!!!!!!!

Awww, don't block your brother out from it. Facebook is fun! Join up! You will see...P.S. Just make sure that you have your anti-virus system on your computer up-to-date. All sorts of Malware, etc. are lurking on FB, trying to get in, just about like anywhere, really. If you don't have anti-virus software, just go to http://www.avast.com and get a free one (Avast). It's pretty good.

You will need to do a search for other browsers.

Why don't you just put a password on your computer?
If he doesn't know it he can't hog your computer.

You could also be a good sister and let him have 1 hour a day to use FB

Hope this has helped.
