OK... I set up the Family Safety restrictions on my ten year old son's user
profile. The time of use restrictions work great, but the content filtering
option doesn't do squat. I tried visiting some pages he never should be on -
ie Playboy - and had no trouble accessin them.

I doubt that is a software problem, but rather some issue with the fool (AKA
me) that set up the software in the first place. Anyone have any ideas on
where I went wrong? Junior ain't ready for Heffner yet....

Netveda Safety.Net can do a much better job of that than what Microsoft
provides and it's free for personal use. It is also a firewal so if you are
using the built in Windows firewall you will need to disable it to use
Safety.Net.

Thanks for the info. If I can't get this working, what you have mentioned
here may be my best option.
