RE: OT : Keeping the kid safe...

["Jon Whiten" <jon@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Use CyberSitter for my Nephew's PC and it seems OK.  It is a little quirky
in its interface but does the job and e-mails me a LOG file each day.  One
word of warning though, you do need to add a few sites to the exclude list
such as images.google.com, etc.

In our case, Jakob, who's spelling is atrocious, was reverting to Google
images as it gave him simpler and faster results.  What I had not realised
was that Google caches the images and as such iffy pictures are available
without actually visiting any dodgy website.  Try searching for
"OOOOO" if
you want to see what I mean.

Demon Spawn has been bugging me for internet access on his PC and I'm
tempted to give in if for no other reason than I want to spare the laptop
that is set up downstairs for Jo (my lovely Compaq Armada M300 which is one
of the best built lappies I've ever seen) from the keyboard pounding that
it
gets when DS decides to play those ruddy games on the CBBC website.

Anyway - are any of you running any of the NetNanny or CyberSitter type
software and would care to post back whether you find it effective and easy
to implement/administer?
