Your post inspired me to do some research on options for blocking these sites and I stumbled upon the uBlacklist browser add-on. It's open source, easily configurable, supports multiple search engines, and you can even use community block-lists instead of building your own.

I rarely put anything on my Desktop, but I'm curious to see if I can somehow apply them globally to all of my folders.

The idea of open source recipes on GitHub is so charming to me.
