parental controls
Hi everyone,
I know there were a couple of threads a while back about this but can't find them now, so apologies but I would appreciate anyone's comments.
My 7 year old girls are just beginning to use the pc at school and a little at home. I've given them their own log on's to windows 2000 on our desk top. They have run cd rom games and stuff without supervision for a while so I don't want to start looking over their shoulders now as they discover the web.
I know the previous threads wisely talked about being open and teaching individual responsibility. However that advice seemed to be aimed at kids older than mine.
So any good tips for suitable software to minimise the risks of them stumbling across something I'd rather they wouldnt know about just yet?
My ISP (was blueyonder and now virgin) offers free parental controls if I increase the speed of my connection (seems like a good excuse for me to speed things up) but is it any good?
Thanks in anticipation.
