Hi all,
I use Firefox 1.5...I was wondering, is there a way I can block certain websites? My sister is being very naughty these days and its time I took some counter measures...I just need to block them for a few days...but not make them permanent...I'm bad, but not that bad...LOL...

Cheers,
Ashar Grin

Are these specific sites or ads?
If it is ads then;
1. Type about:config into the Firefox location bar.
2. Right-click on the page and select New and then Integer.
3. Name it privacy.popups.disable_from_plugins
4. Set the value to 2.
This'll stop even the ones using flash to spoof the built-in Firefox blocker Wink

If it is sites then;
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/10
Install and put in the sites you want to block and away you go Wink
