The easiest way to block websites in Mozilla Firefox is by using a
free, third-party add-on called BlockSite. The BlockSite extension blocks sites
that have been added to its "blacklist," but it can also be set up to
disable any links to the blocked sites by showing nonfunctional text instead of
hyperlinks. BlockSite also has a "password protection" feature that
helps prevent unwanted changes to BlockSite by others.
Instructions
Instructions
1. Open Firefox, click "Tools" then "Add-ons."
Click "Get Add-ons" and then "Browse All Add-ons." Type
"blocksite" in the search bar after the Mozilla Firefox add-ons
website opens and hit "Enter."
2 .Click the "Add to Firefox" button next to the entry for
BlockSite. Allow the add-on to load (usually fewer than 5 seconds), then click
the "Install Now" button. Restart Firefox when prompted.
3. Go to "Tools," then "Add-ons," then click the
BlockSite "Preferences" button after Firefox restarts. Make sure the
"Blacklist" radio button is ticked, as well as "Enable
BlockSite," "Enable warning messages" and "Enable link
removal."
4. Check "Enable authentication," then enter a password if
you would like to keep other users from deleting blocked websites or changing
the settings in BlockSite without your permission.
5. Click the "Add" button, enter the URL of the website you
would like to block, then click "OK." Repeat to add more sites, or
click the "Clear" button to delete the list. Once the list of blocked
sites is complete, click "OK" and restart Firefox.
Tips & Warnings
To import a previously prepared or exported list of blocked websites,
click the "Import" button in the preferences window, browse to the
file you would like to import and click "OK." The file should have
"[Block Site]" listed at the top of the page followed by the URLs of
the sites you would like to block.
