Need to block all or most porn

[shivy]

The topic says it all, are there free programs that do this.

Content Advisor in IE. Enable it.

NetNanny.

But if they're tech saavy, they'll be able to get around it.

I could defeat all content blocks by the time I was 11 years old.

OMG same, my parents had installed cybersitter, i didnt really defeat it, but they nvr put a pw on it, so i just suspended the filter to go on.....google, thats right

At first, I found neat work arounds. Used a BARTPE disc once to delete the .exe file of the content filter. Then, though, it was done via my aol account. Ah, that sucked. It prevented any program but AOL from using the net. No IE, no FF, No opera...just AOL browser. No torrents or games, either, of course.

Then I just ran a linux live cd that ubuntu mailed me for free, with a linux AOL dialer written for linspire. For some reason it worked around the parental controls. I guess they worked with the AOL program rather than the AOL server.

I am eternally grateful to canonical.

 

[shivy]

is there a free program where I can type the sites that I want blocked?

 

[Brinson]

Most Routers can do that, actually. Somewhere in their settings.

Or I'm sure Netnanny can do that.

Well, I had a firewall with parentall control, FSECURE if I'm right which I never used anyway for blocking illegal and porn webpages.
Lucky for me my mother doesn't even know what a computer is cause of her age (56) and my father recently learned how to open the pc and use ms excel for his job. Still admires how a pc can do all that work for him, luckily again he uses my old one. My monitor does not provide eyesight from the door entrance to my room so I can quickly minimize anythink they aren't supposed to see.

I learned from an early age that its better if your tv/pc don't face the door at all. Not just for porn, anything. People ask what you're watching...its annoying.

This seems like a counter-intuitive move.
