I had previously posted about Blocking And Unblocking any websites on your computer. In this tutorial i will teach you to specifically block facebook on your computer. This might be helpfull if you want to prevent students from using facebook in school and colleges or your employees in office. If you are parent and don't want you child to use facebook or any other particular site then follow simple steps given below. So lets get started.

How To Block Facebook ?

1. Go to Start > Programmes > Accesories

2. Then Right click on Notepad and Run it as administrator.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

4. Then just below # 127.0.0.1 localhost paste folowing code
