o0obrian0o0's link above is a great one if you want to keep your kids from accidently going astray. download the host.zip file. It has an install bat so its real easy to use.
What it does, is looks for the listed web sites at ip address 127.0.0.1 (your machine) not on the net. It should also get rid of a lot of pop ups
