| 1368618 | 2014-02-24 19:50:00 | I've got a situation where a preschool would like some software installed on a couple of their PCs that the kids are able to use. In the past I have used K9 Web Protection, and found it to be pretty good, but on both these PCs (Fairly old XP machines) it just won't run - keeps timing out and won't load pages etc. Does anyone know of anything similar that would do the job? Thanks. :) |

| 1368619 | 2014-02-24 20:13:00 | Have you tried all of these solutions ? www1.k9webprotection.com XP is still supported, but Windows 2000 isn't. Just a thought, is the OS's out of date with service packs etc, if they are that may be causing a problem. |

| 1368620 | 2014-02-24 20:38:00 | Yeah I did go right through that - both machines are fully updated. The only thing I didn't try was uninstalling NOD32. Have used XP, NOD and K9 together in the past with no issues. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1368621 | 2014-02-24 21:40:00 | I would look in event viewer. See if its bringing up any errors | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1368622 | 2014-02-25 01:38:00 | You could also try the free Norton Family (onlinefamily.norton.com) software, which I prefer as it has a web based config so you can make access changes without having to physically go to the computer in question. You can also have different access rights depending on what user logs into the computer. Did I really just say I prefer Norton?? :horrified |

| 1368623 | 2014-02-25 02:50:00 | Haha my thoughts exactly, although it does look pretty good - I'll give it a whirl. Thanks. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1368624 | 2014-02-25 23:24:00 | Just a quick note - Norton family safety is awesome! Thanks CYa. | wratterus (105) | ||
