Add an entry to the HOSTS file.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\HOSTS

127.0.0.1 www.websiteto.block

- M4H

All that does is block cookies, not the entire site.

As M4H said you have to add it to your hosts file.

Get the hostname and edit your hosts file in your windows directory so it points to something else or 127.0.0.1.

Edit: I'm slow.

Setup a DNS server and redirect the website to a page asking "why the h3ll are you at this site?"
