I would like to know if there is a way to block a specific web site in firefox. For example a web site pops up "http://onlinecasino.sunmaker.com/de/merkur-casino-spiele.html?aff=100027_KEaBQaAUEABA2016021156bcce8c99918"

and I don't ever want to see the site. I should be able to go into firefox without any add on and say add to block list either the whole domain or the main domain "onlinecasino.sunmaker.com"

It seems performing this function in Firefox itself would be quick and simple. I am aware how to perform the filter in the OS I am running.
