To use keyword and domain blocking
Keyword and Dom ain blocking allows you to rest rict ac cess to Int ernet sit es by
blocking acces s to those sites based on a word or a text string conta ined in the U RLs
used to access t hose Internet s ites.
Domain blocking allows you to restrict access to Websites ba sed on the site's Domain
Name. The D omain Name is the port ion of the URL that precedes the familia r .COM,
.ORG, or .GOV extension.
Keyword blocking allows you to block access to I nternet sites ba sed on a Keyword
or text string being present anywhere in the URL, not just in the Dom ain Name.
Note: The D omain bloc king fe ature blocks access to any Domain in the D omain Lis t.
It will a lso block D omains, any portion of which contains an exa ct ma tch to entries in
the list.
For exa mple, if you enter example.com as a Domain, any site that contains
“examp le.com” will be blocked. Generally , you do not want to include “www.” in a
Domain Nam e since doing so limits the blocking to only the site that matches that
Domain Na me exactly. For instance, if you enter www. example.com into the lis t,
only the one site t hat matches that name exactly will be blocked . Consequent ly, if
you do not include the “www.,” then all sites wit hin and a ssociat ed with
“examp le.com” will be blocked.
