Parents and Teachers today are at the unfortunate disadvantage of having kids that know far more about computers and web access than they do. With Internet connections everywhere you look, it is very easy for minors to access pornographic or otherwise immoral material right under their parents' noses. This reference brings a guiding light to the parent or teacher who wishes to protect minors from questionable material on the Internet. It is not a fancy software package that claims to do everything for you. It is a guide to show you how to audit your home or school system and keep your computer out of the back alleys of the information superhighway.

A must have for any concerned parent or teacher!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Internet Pornography: Awareness and Prevention (Paperback)
This book was a godsent for me. I am fairly computer illiterate, and I had no idea what my 11 and 15 year olds were doing on the Internet while I wasn't there. This book cut through all the excess drivel and showed me flat out where smut is accessed from and how to find out if it had been accessed from my home system. It was extremely easy to read, not like most technical help books. The author avoided any extraneous chit-chat or dull information; he simply took you through what you needed to be aware of, and moved on. It exposed places on the Internet I had never even thought about, not just simple web pages. I would recommend this book to ANYONE who is interested in protecting minors from pornography online.
