678395 2008-06-14 08:55:00 Hi. I'm a recent sign-up to broadband with a 3Gb monthly cap (excess at dialup speed). On that basis, it'll still require judicious usage and I want to restrict some obvious download sites (eg YouTube) from access by my kids. How can I dod that? Can sites be nominated within IE7 as 'no go', or is there a program that can be downloaded to do it (in XP)? Cheers. A Team (13613)

is good but not free and it needs a password to enter it and it does not show in add remove programs.

Cheers :)

678400 2008-06-14 10:27:00 you can ad sites to the restricted list in IE or add them to HOST file. some firewalls also offer this feature. catch is how long will it take for them to work out how to get around it. tweak'e (69)
