vetu11Free, easy to set up and very effective. If it could block apps too then it would be perfect.
2It's really hard to bypass Leechblock and it keeps you off distracting websites. Unfortunately, it doesn't do so for apps, which would be useful.
4Simple interface; everything explained clearly and shortly; and also the process of setting it up was quick. Thanks LeechBlock.
