Blocking Additional Web Sites

Type the host IP address or domain name of the web site to allow.

Repeat step 3 for each additional host or domain name that you want to add to the Allowed Sites
4
list.
The domain (or host) name is the part of a URL that ends with .com, .net, .org, .biz, .gov, or .edu.
Domain names may also end in a country code, such as .de (Germany) or .jp (Japan).
To add a domain name, type the URL pattern without the leading "http://". For example, to allow
access to the Google web site, select to add a domain name and enter "google.com".
If the site has a subdomain that resolves to a different IP address, you must enter that subdomain
to allow it. For example, if "www.site.com" and "site.com" are on different servers, you must add
both entries.
Click Add.

The site is added to the Allowed Sites list.
Click Submit.

To remove an item from the Allowed Sites list, select the address and click Remove, and then click Sub-
mit.
Blocking Additional Web Sites
You can block some web sites that WebBlocker allows. For example, you can receive a LiveSecurity®
Service alert that tells you that a frequently used web site is dangerous. Use the Denied Sites feature to
add the web site's IP address or domain name to WebBlocker to make sure your employees cannot
look at this web site.
From the navigation bar, select WebBlocker > Denied Sites.

The WebBlocker Denied Sites page appears.
