    Default Parental control software free?

    Can any suggest a piece of free software I could install on my computer at home to prevent my son from visiting any nasty sites?

    not sure if the above is the correct link - FN-GM or someone else will be able to confirm or give you the correct link - seen it posted a few times on edugeek.

    Why not just reconfigure your PC/Router/Network to use opendns, that works pretty well and it's free.

    Thanks for the info, I tried K9 very good. I also found Crawler parental control, you can get it from download.com. Very good program for free of course as well!
