I use Raptor which allows blocking of URL extensions (like JPEG and such).
But I have had to block entire sites as well.

I was looking for a solution to this a while back but no joy for me except
to block access to the sites in question... Not very efficient. BUT I was
told by someone that they used Checkpoint to block certain files from being
downloaded: ASX and ASF specifically. I don't use Checkpoint but maybe this
will send you in the right direction...

Subject: Block internet radio
We use Checkpoint 2000 SP3 and Websense 4.2.3
I'm trying to find some way to block internet radio. (Sites like
680news,CHFI,and others where you can listen live to radio broadcasts)
As long as I understand those Internet radio sites use http as a transfer
protocol , which means I cannot block it.Users need it for normal internet
access.
I've found one doc in Websense knowledgebase that states that in most cases
it is enough to block http://vstream.com and http://windowsmedia.com - this
will cover both the radio connection and the list of radio stations provided
my microsoft.
I blocked those sites and I must admit it didn't help at all.
I just wonder if there is some way to block internet radio anyway....
