Using the Windows OS's host file to redirect an URL to an invalid one, e.g. 127.0.0.1, will help me to stop that URL in Internet Explorer and Firefox but not in Google Chrome.
How can I do that in the Chrome browser?

And why do you need to do this? I don't see a point in having Chrome installed unless you're going to use it to browse the web. That is what it's for, anyway.– ephilipApr 25, 2011 at 14:43

@ephilip I want to test my website my friend! My website has different UI based on which urls are accessible or not.– Nam G VUApr 25, 2011 at 17:27

Are you putting "http://" or "https://" before hostname in URL bar? According to @thecoolestguy in google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/… it can be the problem... Another note: the question would be better if you change from "How to make a web inaccessible from Chrome?" to "How to make a web inaccessible from Chrome for an address?" or "How to redirect an url to an invalid one on Chrome?"..– kokbiraApr 25, 2011 at 19:12

Ohh, I'm sorry. I was a bit mislead by your title. It wasn't clear enough. I thought you wanted to make the whole web inaccessible. I suggested an edit to make your title clearer.– ephilipApr 25, 2011 at 20:30

chrome://settings/advanced. - Click the Clear browsing data... button.
