Software filters are computer programs which restrict access to a defined list
of Internet services.
Filters can guard against access to a limited number of sites. They can be
set to stop personal details being divulged, and set time limits for Internet
Access. A filter can be set up on your home computer or network. It can be setup
to supply different levels of access for individual members of the family. There
are many programs available, you will find a list of some of the major ones
below.
In the mean time why not enable (turn on) the content filter "Parental
Content Advisor" that is included free with Internet Explorer? If you would
like to try it out you can click
here for instructions on how to set it up.
