To censur access to different content on the Internet for your son is a really bad idea. It will only lead to more pornwatching just to do the opposite of what you wants him to do. The chance is that he know more about computers then you do and hence he will easily undo what you have done. It would not surprise me if he would came here to the Gnutella forums and asking us for a solution to the problem that you created. The only right thing to do is to talk to your son about computer usage and that you do not want him to visit and or view porn because it is a bad influence when it comes to the way he will see women(objectification). If you do not want to do that then you should not allow him to have a computer in a secluded area in his room instead he should be using it in a more public area of your home such as the livingroom or maybe kitchen or hallroom so that you or someone else will see what he is doing online( I can guarantee he will not watch porn in the face of you or someone else in your family). I and my friend was not allowed to have our own computers in our own rooms just for that reason around 6 years ago when we had not reached the age of 18. But now I dont use my computer for porn either simply because I do not like it. |
Thanks for the advice, but the computer is not in his room. We have two computers side by side in a common office area that the whole family uses. He was not looking for these sites but the software had automatically loaded when he loaded LimeWire or some other MP3 file software. Then we got the pop-ups at all times and in any program while we were on the computer. I found the file only by loading an Internet Security software from McAfee.
