==Use a proxy filter==
You can selectively block content by using a [[web filter]] program. Freely available examples include [[Privoxy]] and [[DansGuardian]]. Once you have installed such a program, you can exert fine-grained control over what content is received by your web browser. This method can also be used for system administrators for schools and workplaces to restrict the access of potentially inappropriate images to students/employees. If you are using a URL based filter which also blocks images from a host, blocking Wikimedia will also block all images. Please note by doing this, some system icons on Wikipedia may no longer be visible as they are hosted on Wikimedia. Also any images from wikimedia on any website will be blocked too.
