Take the modem with you when you leave.  It sends a strong message about who is in control, and you don't need to spend time or money on software that prevents internet access to certian people.  \n\nThe real problem isn't the internet, its that your kid doesn't respect you enough. \n\nDon't play games with him and jump through hoops to temporarily solve problems.  Kick his ass so they don't end up brats.\n\n(software solution may depend on how you connect to the internet, what OS you use, or if you want to spend $)

As others have said, best bet is to install netnanny, cyberpatrol, or something like that.  At http://www.nonags.com you can get a free program that blocks just porn and nothing else.\n\nHowever ... please, please, please don't just install one of these programs and assume all is well and let your kids on the computer unsupervised.  IMO coming across adult content is one of the least of your worries!\n\nHow about IMing with their friends ... and strangers ... and the plans unsuperivsed kids may make online ... to go do something they shouldn't.  Dares.  Threats.  Meeting people somewhere they met online, and the people turn out to be other than they presented themselves as.  Kids don't have the discernment and experience to know who is safe and who isn;t, even among kids of their own age.\n\nYour computer should be in a common area of your home, they should only be allowed online when you can be there supervising what is going on ... like have monitor turned towards the room, and you can be watching tv or reading or whatever, but looking up occassionally.  If they are under 12, you should be sitting next to them most the time, or at lest more closely monitoring.\n\nSet up your internet so that it can not be accessed at all when you are not there.  The internet is a wonderful thing, and a great educational and social tool, but just as you would not let your 10 year old go to the mall alone, or your 14 year old drive a car, or your 16 year old drink, you need to make sure your children are not getting in over their head.

Most likely this is due to some type of "protective block" feature in the AOL software.  This protection is typically meant to protect children, but maybe blocking addresses for which it is not familiar.

Depending on the browser you use, most all of them have security settings where you can set what can be viewed on your computer. Additionally, you can make global changes to your childs login profile on your computer which will control what programs that they can have access to and whatnot. Start with the sites below..\n\nDon't download any 'Toolbars' from the net, you're going to wind up with a bunch of spyware on your computer if you do. Use the settings in your computer's browser and operating system. Stay away from the toolbars!

You are probably not the administrator. Whoever owns the computer would be. So they would have to adjust the internet options for you. If you are young, it is probably your parents.

Yahoo! does provide Parental Controls so that you have prevent your kids from going to certain sites on the Internet and monitor their online usage. It's a great idea, and I'm glad you're watching what your kids do online. For more information about Parental Controls, go to:\nhttp://ypc.yahoo.com/info/ordernow.html\n\nAn alternative is to be sure to turn on Safe Search so that your kids can't search for Adult-content sites. To turn it on, do any kind of search and then click the Preferences link in the top right of the page. Make sure Safe Search is ON.

You should have a parental control area with your Internet access.Just go there and put this website on as an adult place and place a password that only you know.That should stop anyone from accessing this site.
