Internet Parental Control Software

There are many different kinds of parental conrol software on the market; however, each on does just about the same job. Parental control software allows parents to do things such as block websites, control internet availability, monitor/block instant messaging or P2P file sharing and recieve mobile alerts or emails when inapropriate sites have been visited. To many this may seem like a vioation of privacy; however, it is the only way to make sure your child is safe and not viewing any inappropriate material while using the internet.

A few examples of parental control software programs are Safe Eyes, CyberPatrol, Net Nanny, and Windows Vista parental controls. These four programs are the most highly rated parental control systems on the market today. Each program has the same functions; however, systems like CyberPatrol have annual subscriptions that the user must pay for. Therefore, make sure to shop around and buy a program that isn't going to cost you money each year and everytime you would like to install the program in another computer.
