I need a blockin site to block percific sites. Dating sites im aiming to get blocked. I had a good 1 but it was obvious , it was called k-9.
This has got somthing to do with viruses because i keep getting Trojan virus alert when moms been on this dating site and it's begging to annoy me. Because i carnt keep re-booting my pc all the time :/. Thanks in advance.

Try Open DNS, you can set up all kinds of filters for blocking sites.

Or take a look at K9 web protection (www.k9webprotection.com). You can also use the hosts file in Windows to block a list of sites if you know what sites to block without using any 3rd party software.

This seems to be the reverse of normal...

If Mom's using your machine and it gets infected, it might help a bit to set her up with a limited user account on the machine, don't let her use an admin account, and password protect the admin account.

I'm trying to block her but make it look like it's the net or something. K9 comes up with a dog and says blocked an all this stuff. And then for some reason blocked my msn.

I think there is an option in K9 to make it block silently and throw up a generic error message in the browser, but I agree with Tetonbob after reading your post fully. Set up a limited user account for your mom or set up shortcuts to browsers that use dropmyrights to run the browser under limited user rights for security.
