Your browser should have such a feature.

This could be wrong, but this is what I can remember...
Spoiler:
You'll probably have to change Chrome's code, then. It doesn't really have any security features, since it's supposed to be an "open source" browser.

You can block websites with IE and Firefox. :?

FF is open-sourced and it has better security features than anything. >.>

I would beg to differ, my firefox's security component spontaneously disappeared and uninstalling and reinstalling didn't fix it so now I have no security.

Just tell your dad that there are better sites for finding a girlfriend then Craigslist. Tell him that they're mostly virus sites, and tell him not to go there or you'll ground him. :shock:
