Check OpenDNS.com. That's what I use for my son's PC, and it has worked quite well.

List!
Well, I have two boys, 8 and 5, and I have started to look around for good parental controls on browsers. I not only need to have websites blocked but I need to exclude specific words to be searched and specific images to be blocked. If I use Yahoo SafeSearch Filter, I can switch to IMAGES and see stuff. I would say the same thing with Google
SafeSearch:
a) IE - Microsoft has the Windows Live FAMILY SAFETY but that does
not do all that I need. I do not think it blocks words I am searching in.
b) FireFox - No built in PC features (sad). I know that there are
add-ins available but I am looking for the best one, based on your experience, if any.
c) Chrome - No built in PC features (sad). I know that there are
add-ins available but I am looking for the best one, based on your experience, if any.
I reviewed www.download.com<
http://www.download.com> and other sites, looking for the best acceptable solutions out there. My preference is FREE but if I have to pay, obviously, I will. I know that the solution is not perfect and is a combination of tools, wise teaching, and building integrity and trust between your child and you. I just want to have a sense of what you guys are exposed and have experience with.
Thank you all in advance for your suggestions / comments.
Peter Vidal
