Product Description

It's a fact. Many kids don't tell their parents what they do online. They give out their personal information to people they don't know. They're stalked by predators in chat rooms and social networking sites. They're cyber bullied by other kids. They visit websites that contain content you don't want them to see. They download files that are illegal or harmful to your PC. As the use of the Internet has expanded, so have the threats to young children and teens who use it. And the more frequently they use it without supervision, the greater the danger. The problems are growing every day, and the risks to victims of these abuses are very serious. It's never been more important to make sure your family is protected. CyberPatrol Parental Controls puts you in control. It lets you monitor and manage your children's Internet use in a flexible way that best suits your family…yet still allows the freedom to explore safely.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best parental controls I've tried, March 20, 2009

This review is from: CyberPatrol Parental Controls 7.7 (CD-ROM)

Tried the parental controls in Vista and my security suite but they didn't have all the features I was looking for. Decided to try Cyberpatrol based on good reviews I had seen. Has everything I wanted and more. I have kids ages 8, 13, 16 and they all use the same computer. Best thing is that I can set different filtering rules for each of the kids. Doesn't just block bad websites, also lets you set time limits, keep track of where they've been going on the `net, even block them from sending out personal info. Easy to use especially if you just want to use the default settings, just install and go, but lots of ability to configure it the way you want.

My husband and I installed this on our 5 and 7 year olds computer so they could surf without gross things popping up. We tested it out for about an hour and it is a very effective tool. They can access their websites with no problem and the bad stuff can't come through. We recommend!

When my grand children visit, they are always using my PC. I was afraid that they might end up on the wrong web sites. Somehow they always end up going to places that mess up my computer. So I installed CyberPatrol. It works great and it even let my control when the kids could use my PC. Great stuff!
