Limiting web access with Win2K Pro
I'd like to block all web access EXCEPT for one particular web page. Is there any way to do that w/o using 3rd party firewall softtware or a router? I'm using:
-Windows 2K Pro
-Linksys router BEFSR41 (which cannot do it, I've learned)
Or, does anyone know of some shareware/freeware for Win2k that can do this? Basically, I just want to limit all web surfing except for hotmail.com
Thanks a bunch....

Thanks for all your replies. I've found using Explorer's content advisor (thanks to Jochen,) though not perfect, seems to work fine. The only problem is every banner and pop-up from hotmail throws a warning saying it's not on the approved list. I tried added some but they change so often its not worth it and I just have them hit "cancel," on those. If I need a more robust solution, I might try ccProxy.
Thanks again for all your replies,

My simple solution is just as valid.
Perhaps a split?
