Since it is almost impossible to keep up with the IP's that
this may result in perhaps changing /etc/host.conf to be
hosts
dns

and then:
echo "127.0.0.1 compute.amazonasws.com" >>/etc/hosts

would achive your disire to not be accessing those systems.

This method can be implemented on almost any OS, including windows.
