Any good freeware for protecting little ones using the internet?

In the freeware thread I found this one;

http://www1.k9webprotection.com/

just wondered if there were better ones or other options that should be considered before I download

Cheers

K9 is excellent. Used it a few years back and worked a treat.

Get a free account with OpenDNS and use their DNS servers?

I've used K9 before and it works really well.

If you have old hardware lying about why not make yourself a pfsense box then you can have control over everything

Personally, I'd use both of the above.
