Free Parental Control ?

Hello all, i'm looking for free parental control software that will block inappropriate site. Just wondered if any of you have any you specifically recommend? I've been looking at this http://www.parentalcontrolbar.org/, anyone have any idea if it's good?
Thanks

  • Change your DNS to OpenDNS.. they've got parental controls. If you change your wireless router to use it, then all the computers in your house will get parental controls without the need for installing any software.

    You'd also need a rather clever kid to hack into your wifi router and change DNS settings.

    Certain web browsers may have built-in parental controls.
