    Block access to specific IP

    I'd like to block my users' access to a specific IP, and I'm trying to solve it on the local machines. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Re: Block access to specific IP

    Jeremy,
    I don't know if this will work for an entire IP but it MAY allow input with wildcards.

    Internet Options>Content>Content Advisor>Approved Sites. Then fill in the block for "Allow or Disallow this Website".

    I've never tried this but it maybe worth a shot?

    Long ago, there was a time when men cursed and beat on the ground with sticks. It was called witchcraft.
    Today it is called golf!

    Jerry,

    Thanks for the pointer - I'll be sure to check it out tomorrow. Basically, I want to block Google's cache'd sites, simply to deter my users from using sites such as MySpace...
