The Internet is the greatest educational tool since the advent of books, but it is also a sinister playground for prowling predators searching for young prey. It is particularly unnerving to think that these predators can enter a living room undeterred by locks or alarms, and unseen by parents or the family dog. “The anonymity of the Internet plays a very significant role in enabling child molesters to cruise the Web for potential victims without much fear of being caught,” says Karl Garrison, CTO of the consulting group Intelligent Fusion.
A service I really like is BeSafe Online. It is excellent in the way it works, the features available and the cost. Just $50.00 a year gets you protection for your kids from porn, chatting and things of that nature. Add another $10.00 for virus protection.
