thanksss!!! but whts the point i can still go into the site by searching from the google search bar ( not the one at the top) .. any way i can block it completely.. thnaks anyway
You HAVE to duplicate the host file. So you need to have the original host file and a notepad file. Therefore, you are supposed to "save as" not simply "save " over original.
i know how to fix it know .. when u go to start menu then go to accesories then right click on notepad and press run as adminastrator then it will open and click file open then go to the bottom right where it says text documents and change it to say all files then click hosts and type the url address on there and click save and it should work
for vista->move the "hosts" file onto the desktop temporarily. Right click->Edit with-Notepad. Modify the file and save. Now take that "hosts" file and drag (or copy-paste) onto the "etc" folder. Hope that works for you too :) You're welcome...
when you reach to the file host in the folder etc., drag the file on the desktop and then make the changes what you want to make. get the file back in the folder and now the site is blocked. if any queries please do not hesitate to ask from me and if you fine out anything new please let me know. thank you. shaid
hmmm. Whats the problem exactly? are you on Vista? if yes, check out my response to "avelcarlo" on this comment section or Reply back here I'll respond inshAllah :)
oh no i had couple mistakes with spacing i thought it was a single space, now i get it! double space before you type the site you wan't to block. thank you and appreciate your reply, it really works now :)
can anyone help me i want to block website on my laptop but when i click the start button cant find the RUN thing on my start list, is it becouse im on windows vista? and if yes how do i get the run thing.
To get "Run", you go to; Start, All Programs, Accessories, Run. This did not work for me however. I went to Computer and found all the files stated that way, e.g. Computer, C://, System32, Drivers, Ect. Hope this helped. Please leave comments on channel! Thanks, Bye!
thanks so much my wee sis loved playing miniclip so i hardly ever got to play runescape so now she cant runescape name:killcaster08 combat lvl 90 so far =]
please help me~! D: i tried doing it and searching in to different types of videos several times and it still doesn't work it says : cannot create the C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc hosts file. Make sure that the path and file name are correct. -- it does that whenever i save the notepad and i did everything exactly right as followed. when i click ok it shows the window in where i save it and i'm pretty confused so i just click save but it doesn't work~ D: please comment back!
its cool beacuse it dosent open a page that says this website is blocked it onlt loads the website halfway so the background color pops up but nothing else that way my sister cannot tell i did anything. yay i gots my computer back :D
go to start, click my computer, click windows, system 32, drivers, etc, and hosts in that order, just look for the folders, its easy. cya and God bless!
HERE IS THE SOLUTION OF, if it says "cannot create... make sure the path and file name is correct"
All u have 2 do is on the hosts button left click to it and click properties, then On the top middle it says security, click on it, there should be a box saying USER, which is your user name, click on it, then press edit, the n click on the FULL CONTROL box under the allow button, click apply and OK, then your done try to save this time, if there is any problems then replay me, enjoy.
i tried to block armorgames from my brother and it comes up with the "cannot create... make sure path and file name are correct thing and i was hitting save not save as. any suggestions? i need help because armorgames has put 4 viruses on my computer and my brother is completely oblivious to it... hes a complete idiot btw
Just figured it out, thanks. Apparently I am an administrator, but I have to right click in the start menu on notepad then click "run as administrator". I guess for me I have to not only be an administrator, but "run" it as administrator.
Now I get why it kept saying "ask administrator for this permission" even though I was one.
thanksss!!! but whts the point i can still go into the site by searching from the google search bar ( not the one at the top) .. any way i can block it completely.. thnaks anyway
