I am trying to block Google Reader:

reader.google.com

http://www.google.com/reader

The hard part is blocking the reader directory

I blocked reader.google.com by changing my /etc/hosts file (this is for a Mac)

Is there any way to block http://www.google.com/reader without buying software? Note this is for Safari so Greasemonkey won’t work, and Leopard’s Parental Controls throttle the CPU when they are turned on.

Also I’ve tried OpenDNS, which is awesome, but doesn’t work for this…

Any thoughts?

Update: This is for a laptop that travels a lot. So a router or a home proxy server won’t work. Firefox would work, but I don’t think I can uninstall Safari from a mac.
