OpenDNS or squid+squidguard

Hi. DNS Forwarder.

127.0.0.1 facebook.com
127.0.0.1 www.facebook.com

OR

You could add this to the host file on the computer. If the user is not admin they cannot change it.
c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

open it with notepad and add these lines at the bottom.
www.facebook.com    127.0.0.1
facebook.com    127.0.0.1

that is domainName  TAB  IPaddress

this will force the machine to connect to the loopback address for those domain names.

Some nerds will use proxy. So, Install squid+squidguard to block proxy list ips.

Hope this help your needs.
