I've got a client who's asking me to recommend a filter for her 6 year old child who goes on the 'net and emails.

I know there are loads about, just wondered if anyone can recommend one from personal experience as I've only ever used corporate stuff.

Cheers,

Phil

Can't recommend personal stuff but rest assured that as soon as my sprog starts to use the internet I'll become the harshest sys-admin ever

Surely it's the stuff in your downloads and "My Documents" folder that's most dodgy though?

W2K workstation with different logons/access rights policies etc etc will sort that out...

When she knows how to get round that lot, then she'll be able to deal with the whole Internet

I have a similar problem in this area.
The way I have handled this is by setting up a login for the kids.
Not letting them access to email or chat rooms.
Set internet explorer up to increase security under tools.
Set Google search up to filter nasty stuff out.
More than happy to commincate direct on this, feel free to email.
