There are many software in the market to block sites .But in every method You have to type  the websites which you want  to block in your computer.
                                                             Today i have a simple tut to do that  but i am not using any high weighted software which slows down my computer.We just need a notepad which is pre-built installed in every version of microsoft windows .
1: Go to start and click on run or just press windows button + R
2:In the empty bar just put the following code

 notepad %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
