URL Blocking

Use URL Blocking to prohibit access to groups of web sites by using key words. A URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is the Internet address of a web site (usually beginning with “http://”). The key words you enter will determine which web sites are blocked. If the key word you enter appears in any part of the URL, access to that site will be denied.

•URL Blocking: (Default Off) Click On to activate blocking, or Off to disable blocking and allow access to all web sites.

•Keyword: Enter a key word that commonly appears in the URL of sites you want to block, then click Add. Access will be denied to all web sites whose addresses contain this keyword. You may enter as many keywords as you like.

•Delete Keyword: To remove a keyword, highlight it, then click Delete. This will allow access to web sites whose addresses contain this keyword.

When you are finished, click Apply to add a new filter to the list.

Example: To help prevent network computer users from visiting retail shopping web sites, you could enter “shop” as a keyword. Access to sites with the word “shop” in the web site address would be denied.
