To help us improve our productivity at work, avoiding distractions on the internet, from the popular Social Networks and video portals, among other any web page of course. It is that we have as a good companion FocalFiltera free application very simple to use and efficient as I will comment below.
FocalFilter is developed for temporarily block web pages, being compatible with any browser, including known ones Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Safari. It is in English and as can be seen in the previous screenshot, there are 3 simple steps to follow:
- Set website blocking time to 'Block for'. That goes from 5 minutes to 12 hours, in case someone dares to do extra hours…
- Enter the addresses (URLs) of the pages to block (see next screenshot), you can edit the list by placing as many pages as you want, there are no limitations.
- Finally with a click on the button 'Block My Site List', the lock will take effect without turning back, so pay attention to the lock time you define.
FocalFilter it is compatible with Windows 7 / Vista / XP, by the way, it is necessary to have installed .NET Framework in the latter and run it as Administrator. 1MB is the slight size of your installer file. Keep in mind that for the changes to take effect, it is a requirement that the browser is not running, otherwise it will have to be restarted.
