ParentalControl Bar

Miles ahead of everything else

by: rider555 on 04-Nov-2006 04:04:34 AM

Pros: It's funny. This product is free...yet it works better than any of the pay products. And not just a little better, WAY better. I just wish I could get my money back from the other ones. BTW, this works on PC and MAC as I have both in the house (and it works on my firefox 2.0)

Cons: All the filters I have used 'block' sites they shouldn't. This one does it less though and I can 'allow' the sites that got blocked so I just check my child's surf history once a week and 'allow' the ones I want. It' really not that hard.

ParentalControl Bar

Extremely easy to use and can't beat the price.

Pros: We used Net Nanny for the last 2 years after paying the $40 fee. But it wasn't compatible with IE 7 and so we went searching for something new. This is an excellent alternative. It's much less buggy (NN crashed all the time), MUCH less complicated, it's very intuitive to use, and it's a small file.

Cons: I haven't figured out how it updates its list of blocked sites. I don't like the fact that the hint is so visible to kids on the pop-up which prompts you when you seek to enter parent mode. I'm a bit concerned about the fact that when something is blocked it says why ( for instance, 'nudity') where the kid can see. But these are small things.

Pros: The tool bar is great for allowing children to browse the internet. My children are 11 and 8 and its wonderful to be able to let them surf the internet and not have to worry that they might see something thats innapropriate.
