I want to block and filter content on the Internet for my children.
What software are you using and would you recommend it.
Any advice would be welcome.

Hi Hythers,
I have moved your thread over to the techie board, where hopefully you will get more replies.

Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [email="andrea@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/email].

I've just checked the links about child security and they all work. I'll check the rest on the page too.Hythers wrote:All of the links on that page end with the following message:

I've removed some of the links - they linked to the old site and now don't work. Thanks for pointing it out.Torgwen.......... ...........0 -
You could always sign up for a BTYahoo PAYG account and use their parental control software and browser for free. It also allows you to contral email, limit time on internet etc. I believe you only have to dial in every now and then to keep the account active (though I only dial in once every 3 months or so). This will give you 1 main account and up to 4 sub accounts (which can be used for kids).
You do not have to dial in using BT to use the software, browser and parental controls.To infinity and beyond!0 -
