Content Advisor enabled but not working - solutions/alternatives?


First of all, I have to clarify that I use Windows 10 and IE 11.

Currently, I have managed to enable Content Advisor and add several websites to the 'always block specific websites' list. However, I can still access all those websites without interference, even though their urls are exactly the same as those on the blocked list. How can I ensure that Content Advisor is functioning as intended?

Aside from that, are there viable alternatives to Content Advisor for website blocking? I hope to block certain websites to maintain my focus during work, so setting up a child account and restricting that isn't an option. I also do not wish to pay for any software, if possible.
