Also, why ON/OFF image is allowing click (it ha a hand icon)?
Use “Download” button to download it , extract and run it , İt is a portable App. you can not install it
Please can you explain, in as few words as possible, that’s, as few words as possible without any digressing or any embellishments. How to install and use Net Disabler 1.0 my system is Win 7 pro 64bit.
Please remember I do not want or need anything extra!
Hi I am looking for a program that will turn my router on/off at certain times without having to turn it of at the wall, or without having to leave my computer on, reason: so that when i go to sleep at night the kids or anyone else come to that can`t use the internet..
I never used zoneAlarm but don’t think it is portable is it ? if not we have found the first reason to use this App , This App Offer 3 Internet blocking methods this can be the second reason. I will not find many others , Thanks for your comment.
Sure, nice stuff. Only why bother? Most firewalls, certainly the commonest, ZoneAlarm, have Pause Internet Activity functionality. So one doesn’t need any extra software at all.
Disable Devices: This method disables all the selected network devices so that there is no communication between your computer and the internet. In this mode, Windows will respond as if there is no wireless or LAN connection on your computer.
Block with DNS: Net Disabler will change system-wide DNS settings so that the users cannot access any website. Overcoming this type of security is very easy. It can be done by simply plugging in the IP address values rather than the website names. And in this type of setup, Windows will connect to wireless or other networks but websites will not be accessible.
Block with Windows Firewall: Under this method, Windows Firewall settings are altered in such a way that no program can access internet on the computer. Windows will connect to wireless and other networks in this setup as well.
