Tip of the Week
Internet content filters are not 100% effective in blocking unsuitable content from your children. You may find that certain filters will not block offensive content or that the filter will not allow you to access websites that you do want to visit. To help avoid this, many Internet content filters use a combination of White Lists, Black Lists and filters. As a result of using these lists:
White Lists are the most effective at blocking offensive material but are the most restrictive; andBlack Lists, when used with a content filter, are the most popular and they tend to block most of the unsuitable content while allowing access to most of the appropriate content.Internet content filters combine all three methods to produce the most effective filter technique. As an example of this, you will be able to set up different profiles for different users in your house, and specify their different level of access.
