Hi, My son just turned 10, and I was interested in being able to set up some sort of internet filter for him. I don't need to tie his hands as far as browsing goes, nor do I need something that is childproof or otherwise beyond his ability to circumvent. I just want something that would prevent him from accidentally stumbling upon certain types of questionable sites... you know: have him type in "kids" in a search engine only to be confronted with links to child porn sites. I've looked into Junkbuster and that's a possibility... but that doesn't allow filtering based on content, just specific sites. Are there free software packages that can filter content? Anybody with experience in this? Also, if anybody knows of a child safe search engine, that would be greatly appreciated as well.
I know that no solution is perfect... I'm just looking for something that would help protect him from the darker sides of the internet until he's ready for it. I would be grateful for any ideas. Thanks. -- John Patton [EMAIL PROTECTED] Get my GnuPG public key: finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] "It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble.
