Free Internet Web filtering Software for home PC

If you have a home PC with broadband that your children have access to, then the following software from a company called Bluecoat is really cool, it's also free and provides a very easy way to control what web pages can be viewed on the pc, so children can surf safely. It can be customised or just use the default settings.
The software checks the website against a remote database and either allows or denies access depending on filtering categories chosen. If an adult wants to visit the website anyway the software can be bypassed with a password. Software also protects the pc from harmful spyware etc.
