yahoo can let you set up all the parental controls you need but I would still recommend keeping the pc in the same room as you are in when the kids are using it.\nThis way you can see what is happening

use a firewall like zonealarm . it is a freeware but very powerful

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 $)

I've tried a few.  McAffee's Parental Controls and Net Nanny work but are difficult to set up.  \n\nPut your computer in the family room, not off in a bedroom where he has a lot of privacy.  Let him know you are going to log the sites he visits and if he does go to a porn site, then the computer is off limits.  \n\nLimit his time on the computer, too.  It's not good to let them stay up all night surfing the net!

I was going to recommend you ZoneAlarm.. but I'll recommend a firewall I never heard of until now but looks like its good..\n\nhttp://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/\n\nComodo Firewall, and its free and they look good..\n\nBut if that doesnt work tell your dad just to stop if your really getting annoyed of it..\n\nAnd some random rankings of free firewall.. Pshaw..\nhttp://www.iopus.com/guides/free-firewall.htm\n\nBut try it yourself.. The power within Google..\n\nhttp://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGGL,GGGL:2006-36,GGGL:en&q=Free+Firewall\n\nOr you can hack into your LAN and  do some "things" with it so your dad can't have access anymore...

Go to "Tools," then "INternet Options," then "Security" or "privacy" and adjust your settings

Make sure you are getting an ip address\ndo this\nStart..run..type cmd..when the command prompt comes up\ntype ipconfig /all\n\nsee what your default gateway is.. it might be a number like 192.168.1.1\n\nping your default gateway\n\nif you get a reply, it maybe your internet connection settings.\n\ndo you have encryption such as WEP / WPA on this connection?\n\nIf everything seems fine and you have set up the wep key and everything else properly. Run the connection wizard and say that you want to connect to the internet using a broadband connection that is always on.\n\nalso like shyla said make sure your LAN is disabled.

Consider parental control software. e.g. CyberPatrol, Net Nanny. I use McAfee's Internet Security Suite.

Configure your proxy at internet options

in os x, you go to the system preferences, click on system accounts.  The tab on the far left sets the parental controls. Setup a guest account or an account for your kids, then you can set your account for parental control.

If your DSL service is via PPPoE -- Verizon's is -- You have to provide a user name and password to sign on; just set yourself up to not store the password.\n\nAlternatively, over-the-counter programs such as Cybersitter and Net Nanny can block the Internet with a password. It's not foolproof, but it should be good enough to thwart all but the most determined teen-ager.\n\nUPDATE:\n\nAssuming you use only one computer to get on the Internet, it is directly connected to the modem and you use Start --> Connect To to connect:\n\n1. Go to Start --> Control Panel\n2. Choose Network Connections\n3. Right-click on your Verizon connection and choose properties\n4. Look for the setting that says remember password and turn that off\n\nIf your kids know your Verizon password, you'll need to change it at http://www.verizon.net.

You can't completely.  The best you can do is take advantage of all the technology that exists.  Make sure your controlling what is on tv, what is on the computer, and what is in your home.  In the outside world though you have little control and need to explain it to your kids.
