    Babysitting software?

    I've got young children who have been using the internet for research, etc. and I'm a little worried about them stumbling onto pornography. I've heard of programs like 'Net Nanny' and 'Cybersitter' but I know anything about them.

    Does anybody have any input on these types of programs, ie - do they work, are they freeware, etc.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Yeah, there are effective programs that filter adult contant. McAfee Guard Dog is really good, I had to install it on my bothers machine a couple of months ago. It was $19.99 at Costco.
