And/or put the computer in a locked room when you aren't there. Nothing is
foolproof when it comes to this sort of thing.

For some requirements, you may find it easier to invest in a
3rd-party solution, such as NetNanny or CyberPatrol.

You need to be aware, however, that *NO* technical or software
solution is fool-proof, and _none_ can ever adequately take the place
of live parental supervision.

that was great thanks so much for your help. i dont have the option to lock
the computer in a room if i did that would be the first place it would go. i
have it set now that you need password access to any site that isnt on the
allowed list . sneaky i know but better than them looking at this with my 10
and 6 yr olds around.. again thanks for the help.
