How to block Meebo ?

Posted in Category: Work — Amr Awadallah @ 6:57 pm | link | | comments (4)

I was looking at the query logs for my blog and saw a lot of queries coming in with the query string “how to block Meebo?”, they were hitting a previous blog posting of mine.

Its rather simple to block Meebo, first note that unlike other messenger tools, Meebo does not use a specific port, rather Meebo works over the HTTP port just like any other web page.

So to block Meebo, you simply need to add the “meebo.com” domain to your banned domains list, and that’s it, no more Meebo in your corp network/school.

  3. additionally u can also edit your C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file with notepad and add the following line on the bottom of it :
    127.0.0.1 http://www.meebo.com
    save the file.
    No one can force u to watch ADD’s 🙂
