[QUOTE="jkfrench, post: 1510566, member: 300314"] Thanks, chscag. I am familiar with hosts files. That should work to block access. I may write a script that edits the hosts file so I can enable/disable URL blocking on demand or from a crontab entry. mrplow, unfortunately my router doesn't allow a blacklist by MAC or IP address. Do you know of any that do? I'd consider upgrading if the cost was reasonable. Ultimately I may need to set up a proxy that will give me this kind of control, but going the hosts route should work for now. Thanks for your replies! [/QUOTE]
