arrow Protect your kids from bad sites

The Internet is a great learning tool for your children. They can get help with their homework online. Or, they can do research for school projects. Of course, the Internet is also a fun place, with lots of games and entertainment.
But the Internet has a darker side, too. Some sites promote hate and drugs. Others offer pornography, violence and gambling. You definitely want to protect your children from these sites.
You can't watch your kids all the time. But you can get a little peace of mind by installing parental control software.
Blue Coat's K9 Web Protection is a good free parental control program. It is based on software that many businesses use. It comes with a list of objectionable sites. But you can customize the list. You'll also get regular updates.
The program also lets you specify times when the computer can or can't be used. And since it works through Windows, it doesn't matter what browser you use.
Cost: Free
Systems: Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7
