Surf Monkey
A free addition to Internet Explorer that filters out unsuitable sites and includes some useful features for children. Downloading the "surf monkey bar" is relatively quick (15 minutes maximum) and free. The surf monkey bar appears at the bottom of the IE window when installed. TIP:- Right click within the IE window if it does not happen automatically once installed. The filter works well, baring access to unsuitable web pages and cleverly filtering out bad language. It even seems to stop children using some obvious words within search engines. This is an excellent safety feature but nothing can substitute for parental supervision and talking to your children about acceptable use!
