Go to  your HOSTS file. It's in your Windows, system 32, drivers,etc folder.\n\nCopy HOSTS and rename HOSTS.old. \nOpen HOSTS with notepad and \nAdd 127.0.0.1  XXXX.com under the last line where XXXX is the name of the site you are blocking.\nClose HOSTS and answer yes\n\nFor example if you wanted to block Yahoo, HOSTS would now look like this:\n\n# Copyright © 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.\n#\n# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.\n#\n# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each\n# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should\n# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.\n# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one\n# space.\n#\n# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual\n# lines or following the machine name denoted by a "#" symbol.\n#\n# For example:\n#\n# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server\n# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host\n#\n127.0.0.1 localhost\n127.0.0.1 yahoo.com\n\nSimply placing the undesired website in your restricted zone will not prevent total access. Adding to the restricted zone will just prevent the use of scripts, Active-X, etc.\n\nGood luck.

Usually, when this happens, there will be a yellow highlighted message near the top of the screen - telling you that the object was blocked and to click the "x" for additional information.  If you click on that you usually get the option to allow that site to access your computer.\n\nAlso:\nSome sites will not allow you access unless you allow cookies.\nYour security might be set too high.\n\nClick Tools,  Internet Options.  Then carefully check out all the tabs for Security, Privacy, ...

You can't.  It has nothing to do with your computer.  It is all done through router configurations and block internet addresses.  Sorry you're stuck

Hello there. \n\nWell as you probably know by now, a solution will not always work but here are a few.\n\n1. Purge all your cookie files. This means getting rid of all the cookies that are stored on your computer, because there could be some malicious ones that prevent other sites from opening. So, in Windows Explorer...\n\na. Click on tools\nb. Go to Internet options\nc. On the 'general' tab, go to the browsing history\nd. click on 'delete' Internet temporary files\ne. apply and close\nf. close all applications and restart PC for settings to take effect\n\nAlternatively...\n\na. perform steps a. and b. from above\nb. click on 'security' tab \nc. outside 'security level for this zone square'\nd. click on 'reset all zones to default level'\ne. apply and save\nf. close all applications and restart PC for settings to take effect\n\nOr...\n\nCheck below tabs in 'Windows Internet explorer' \nor below status bar in explorer windows to see if the browser has blocked the site, and click the bar to allow the active X control...\n\nHope this helps!!

You can't do it exactly as you describe, but there is a way to block people.\n\nThe easiet thing to do is to block access to the entire computer.  Do this by creating user names and passwords in control panel.  This way only certain people are allowed to use the computer.\n\nYou can use the above method to block some users from running certain programs, but it is more complex.  In Windows Explorer (not IE), you can set security options on files and folders.  On my computer, IE is in the directory "C:&#92;Program Files&#92;Internet Explorer".  You can set the security options to allow access only to certain users.\n\nIf you do the file security method, you should create a security group called something like "IeUsers" and allow that group access to the directory.  You then give certain users access to the program by making their user ID members of the "IeUsers" group.\n\nI don't recall if XP home allows detailed security settings.  If not, you will have to be satisfied with blocking them completely from the computer.  XP professional does allow the detailed security control.

you can ping the websit .. \n\nOpen your command prompt\n\nand write : ping "the website" \n\nwith a space between ping and the websait \n\nand you will have the IP of that websit ... \n\ncopy the IP and write it in the address bar in internet explorer .\n\nmost of the blockers block only the name of websit .. not the IP ..\n\ntry it ..

If you're running the new Internet Explorer seven.  The web site might be blocked, due to spy ware fishing and viruses.  Also, if you're running spy bot search and destroy this web site might be blocked, for the same reason.  If for some reason, you really need to get to this site, in your toolbar go to tools, and Internet options, then click the security tab.  Now click on the restricted sites tab, now click on the tab that says the view sites, scroll down the list until you see the web site, now remove it from the list.  Now you should be able to get into your web site

Tools/Internet Options/Advanced\n\nAbout 3/4 of the way down the list, find the section labeled "Search from the Address bar"\n\nClick on "Do not search from the Address bar"\nThen Apply, and OK

If you are on Windows, you can block any site at all from all Web apps by adding this line to your HOSTS file:\n\n127.0.0.1 unwantedsite.com\n\nWhere "unwantedsite.com" is the Web site you want to block.\n\nRemember that anyone with admin privledges can change the HOSTS file. Therefore, if you are trying to block a certain site for certain computer users, and don't want them to be able to change the HOSTS file themselves, you need to set them up with a user account that does not have write / modify access to the HOSTS file.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_file

I'm sure there's a good reason they block certain sites. But if you have to, look for open Proxy Servers / sites that will allow you to browse anonymously.
