i came across the leechblock plugin for firefox the other day but never tried it out because i wasn't satisfied i couldn't get around it quite easily. instead i decided i should limit my internet access to ten minutes in every hour. i've written some a couple of scripts to achieve this. the first is a script to setup IPtables[1] firewall rules which will drop internet/tcp traffic (but not ssh/etc traffic ;-)), which is called via crontab[2] and the second script installs these things so you don't have to pfaff about.
