Hello, could someone recommend decent content filter software as it seems my auntie doesn't want her son to watch all that pr0n. :p

Just so it blocks websites, I'm not sure what is out there.
 
Which operation system does she use? If its vista or Win7, They come with inbuilt parental control that blocks websites, keeps logs, limit usage time etc...I think its one of the best but under-used features of windows

OpenDNS is another handy layer to use.

There is nothing handy about openDNS for personal use. You have to block for all and not for selected users.. There is no give in it. You also have to use its web based system for admin which also isn't that convenient.

Yes, if his auntie wants to watch pr0n, you have a point.
 
It's windows XP. I would've used the content filter if she had vista/7. I'm not sure on XP and it's easily turned off really.
 
I'll try that MSFamily Safety Brummie, cheers.

I'll then check OpenDNS but when a family is totally computer inept then I don't see that as a necessary procedure. :p
