Intego ContentBarrier, comprehensive parental control software for Mac (Part II)

ContentBarrier is a parental control program for the Macintosh, providing functions for parents and businesses. It is designed to filter and block certain Internet content according to the settings you choose. ContentBarrier blocks adult web sites, sites with subjects not fit for children, and blocks chats when predatory language is used. It also blocks certain protocols, or types of Internet communication, that you may not want your children to use, such as peer-to-peer and other file sharing protocols, online games, streaming audio and video, FTP, SSH and more.

ContentBarrier works with multiple users, and interfaces seamlessly with the Mac OS X user accounts on your computer. If you have several children, you can set different limitations corresponding to their age or maturity. You can choose whether they have access to newsgroups, e-mail, or whether they can download files. You can set the program to let them only use the Internet at certain times, and on certain days. You can choose to block or allow specific web sites, allow users only to use selected applications, and block access to specific types of content, such as streaming media or peer-to-peer file transfers. The program can even send you e-mail, automatically, when certain events occur. And you can view logs and manage some of ContentBarrier's settings over the Internet, using any web browser.

ContentBarrier sets up a protective wall around your computer. Its pre-defined filters let you choose what you dont want your children to see, and you can create your own custom filters as well. Inappropriate web sites are blocked, shielding your children from content they are too young for. Additional filters block content by program type, such as chats, newsgroups and more.

ContentBarrier is available from Internet Security Barrier X6

i love the stupid schedule monitor. i never have enough time to game or to surf its just mental. IMO parents need to get off their asses and just walk to the computer the child is on and tell them to get the fuck off. this software is just bullshit. i FUCKING HATE IT.

Parental blocking? Ok. I understand.

Password to log in? Of course.

Unable to use internet at certain times? Alright.

Complete logs of everything they do and type? Crossing the line. Privacy should exist at least a little, parents. Keep in mind that kids (myself included) use the internet to socialize. I talked to my first girlfriend through email and I don't want my parents to see everything we did. I didn't do anything sexual, but some of the stuff I said would have embarrassed me.
