Best Parental Control Software
Reviews say Safe Eyes,
CyberPatrol and CYBERsitter all do a good job blocking questionable
websites and monitoring kids' time online, but each program has different
advantages. CyberPatrol's big advantage is versatility. It gives parents
more options than any competing products. Customization can apply to any
or all users. In contrast with CYBERsitter, CyberPatrol is not over-zealous.
All parental-control software lets users restrict kids' access to Internet
applications like chat, file-sharing or web browsing, but Windows-only CyberPatrol
can also restrict access to programs on the computer's hard drive, such as games
or finance software. The catch is that CyberPatrol requires an annual subscription,
and it can only be installed on one computer. Safe Eyes allows up to three installs.
To help protect us and our families,
companies are creating software programs such as Safe Eyes
to control what we see and do online. Parental controls have
protected millions of families from viewing and accessing
inappropriate material. With parental control software, you
are able to:
*
Allow what websites are appropriate
for viewing.
*
Control the amount of time spent
online.
*
Control what times the Internet is
available.
*
Control programs such as Instant
Messengers and peer to peer programs.
*
Review logs of websites visited,
programs accessed, chat room conversations and keys typed.
Did you know that 60% of children who
accidentally view porn or adult related content online never
tell their parents for fear of having the internet taken
away? Many of us have no idea what our family does online or
who they are talking to. As a proud father of 3 children, I
encourage you to start. What your children do online and who
they talk to can greatly affect them. It is our
responsibility to protect our child online just as it is to
protect them while they are not home.
Did you know that they discovered 497
registered sex offenders with MySpace profiles? These people
are after our children and we can prevent it! Although Safe
Eyes and other related parental control software are used
mostly for the safety of our children, it can protect us
adults as well. It is just as important for us to stay away
from these adult related sites, chat rooms and related
programs and as it is for our children. Pornography is one
of the strongest addictions in the world. According to
comScore Media Metrix, 71.9 million people visited adult
sites in August 2005. That's almost half the internet users!
Did you know that more than 20,000 images
of child pornography are posted on the internet every week?
This is astronomical, these are pictures of some ones
children!
These issues will probably never be fully
controlled, but it is something that we can control in our
own family. If you are concerned with your family and I am
sure you are, get parental control software such as Safe
Eyes to keep them safe, because the last thing that we want
to see is a picture of our own child on the internet.
