I've heard that you can block it through your router settings. how?
also, what software can I use?
 
yes, but I don't know how to set it

Hmmmmm url blocking is a bit different. I believe you'd have to specify by url, which can become kinda tedious. Unlike content filtering which would work on keywords like porn.
 
You will need to add a whole list of URL's that contain certain types of information.
sorry if this is explicit...
sex, lesbian, *****,fu*,gay, porn,

you get the idea...
 
From that screenie id say you have to specify the url, then specify the range on your lan to deny access.
 
We could use something like that at my place I don't assume Linksys has a feature simular to that I never noticed anything that even resembles that feature.
 
So it is like content filtering, you just hafta specify key words.

Is it working?

yeah. it's working too good. I couldn't receive email from sites with the word in it. it was blocking this site too since the words were mentioned. I have to set it up to allow this ip, but block the rest
