Can't use block function

XP Pro, SP 2.

None of my site blocks works!

Here are the steps I followed:

Explorer
Tools
Internet Options
Content
Settings
<password>
Approved sites
<www.site.com>
Never
<site now marked with red symbol in list>
Apply
OK
OK

I can get to any of the "blocked" sites any time. Help?

Just use a HOSTS file, and add any site you don't want access to.
