Blocking access to Xanga.com
I want to block access to Xanga.com from my computer. Would I go about this by editing my host file C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts ?

haha, no that'll do the trick I just wasn't sure if that was the right path to take or if there was an easier way. They're not savy enough to beat me.

thanks for the reply!
