    well my suggestion is software is good but your kids not much skilled you could try this

    create limited account with limited permissions for them
    remove all access for main drive C, dedicate them another drive for use and make it write protected
    then using hosts file u can just block websites
    make the registry read only

    K9 Web Protection is recommending for you http://www.k9webprotection.com/

    It is free
    It runs as a small system service that will work regardless of the browser
    Requires a password to change settings or uninstall and admin rights
    You can set it to block categorized sites so you dont have to worry about new sites getting through the filter.
    It queries their backbone for categorization based on the url and then the client compares with your local settings and either blocks or allows so dont need to maintain large block lists.

    Re: Best Parental Control software

    hi why you looking for software application ? if you are using vista try this what i did .
    set your parental control in Vista:

    From the ‘Control Panel’ Window, Choose the ‘User Account’ and click the ‘Manage Another Account’
    Choose and click on the desired account (example: ‘Jennifer’)
    Click ‘Set up Parental Controls’
    Choose one account that you want to control (example: ‘Jennifer’) and Vista will pop-up the Parental Controls setup window
    Click ‘On’ in the Parental Controls. And all components will light up (including an option labeled ‘Up to ADULT ONLY’)
    Choose ‘On’ in the ‘Activity Reporting’ option
    Click other option, like ‘Web restrictions’. After the process, the next window will come up
    Choose ‘On’ again at the option ‘Do you want to block some web content?’
    Next, decide which content that you want to block in the ‘Web Contents’ list (You may choose: ‘Pornography’ and ‘Sex Education’)
    Click OK to close the window and at the same time

    Safe Eyes 5.0 is best option for you .Can be installed on up to three computers
    Remote changes become effective immediately. Available for Mac users also. but the small problem i feel it is not the most versatile and does not analyze data in real time .
