Subject: Parental Controls for Kids

  Posted by: ukula - [387512222] Sat, Oct 07, 2006, 23:05
My kids, ages 7 and 5, have recently been getting more adventurous when surfing the net. First it was barbie.com, nickjr.com, disney.com, etc... Now they're starting to type in random sites like "theirname".com, "afavoriteteacher".com, etc.... It's only a matter of time before they hit on some major porn site.

Are there any basic parental controls on Internet Explorer or Yahoo that I can set as a temporary solution before they know how to disable things like that?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

My other option would be to buy a program that monitors things like that, but I was hoping there would be a simple setting on IE or Yahoo that I could set just for now.
