Re: Block a download - xolara - 02-11-2011
Okay i think i got it or else you can try and work with it a little
Code:
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Sub BlockSite()
Dim systempath As String = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.System)
Dim Hosts As String = systempath & "\" & "Drivers" & "\" & "etc" & "\" & "hosts"
Dim writer As New StreamWriter(Hosts)
writer.Write(Environment.NewLine)
writer.Write("127.0.0.1" + " " + " " + TextBox1.Text + vbNewLine)
writer.Write("127.0.0.1" + " " + " " + TextBox2.Text + vbNewLine)
writer.Write("127.0.0.1" + " " + " " + TextBox3.Text + vbNewLine)
ListBox1.Items.Add(TextBox1.Text)
ListBox1.Items.Add(TextBox2.Text)
ListBox1.Items.Add(TextBox3.Text)
writer.Write(Environment.NewLine)
writer.Dispose()
End SubYoutube Video: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHkut4ay7kE">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHkut4ay7kE</a><!-- m -->
This is to show what you will need so it the site will be most unlikely be able to be opened

Re: Block a download - Protection4Real - 02-12-2011
I got a thing/code that can get all the downloadable files from a website and then show them in a listbox
url and local file names. do you think you can make some kind of saftey thing with this?
Re: Block a download - Protection4Real - 02-12-2011
How do remove the blocked websites xD?
Re: Block a download - xolara - 02-12-2011
Go to your C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc\ and then the hosts file just delete everything there is in that file
and i will have a look into it
