Hello all,

Does anyone have a recommendation for a program or a method that will keep kids from getting to the internet on the family computer? I was using content advisor in Internet Explorer but that's a pain when an adult wants to get on. What I'd like to have is a way to easily allow a parent to get on but impossible for the kids to get on without a parent's permission. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

TC,

Good topic... I am experiencing the same problem.

Tonight, I had to use a RegEdit command to go into the registry and delete my Content Advisor password (which I forgot)...

I am interested in finding out about an easier application to make things a little safer for the kids to surf.

Hope all is well my friend...

Do an Internet search for "Internet parental controls" and you should get some ideas about programs that can help.

Hey Tim and Andy. I did a web search and got a couple of great ideas. It turns out there are tons of review sites for this very type of software. Duh. I should have figured that out. So thanks Andy for the suggestion. Tim, I hope all is well with you too my friend.
