Did you want this to be browser specific, or specifically for the whole computer or for the whole household?

The System Detail list shows that you run an older Firefox 41 version that is no longer supported with security updates.

  • It is important to update Firefox and add-ons to the latest versions to get all security fixes.

Please update to the current Firefox 43.0.2 release.

  • Help > About Firefox

There are extensions that can block websites, but those can easily bypassed by starting Firefox in Safe Mode.
