It is often necessary to protect your own children from unsafe Internet content. To do this, you need to use special filter programs that allow you to control the content of sites that your child visits. They will help ensure safe surfing and filter out unwanted content.
Necessary
- - Browser,
- - firewall,
- - a special program for filtering by content.
Instructions
Step 1
If you need to deny access to a specific site, then everything is simple. It is enough to open the file C: Windowsdriversetchosts, and under the line "127.0.0.1 localhost" write "127.0.0.1 site_address". The site address should look like www.sait.ru. To make a redirect to a specific page instead of 127.0.0.1, you can register any address to which the child will be transferred when a prohibited site is entered in the address bar of the browser
Step 2
The easiest way to block resources with software is firewalls. They all have the function of prohibiting the transition to certain resources, for this it is enough to enter the desired address in the corresponding window of the program, and the child will no longer go to it. The Outpost firewall does a good job of denying access. You can also use the standard Windows program, which is located in the "Control Panel" - "Internet Options" - "Security".
Step 3
You can deny access to a specific site directly in your browser. For example, Firefox uses the Blocksite add-on for this. To do this, go to "Tools" - "Add-ons", select Blocksite, where in the settings item you need to fill in the Blacklist position. In Opera, this is done in the item "Service" - "Settings" - "Additional" - "Content" - "Blocked content" - "Add", where the unnecessary address is entered. Menu items may vary depending on the browser version.
Step 4
The most popular and accurate program for detecting objectionable content is Internet Censor. This program works with "whitelists", which are manually formed and compiled by the creators of the program. Among the free analogs, it should be noted "Blokprogramma", which searches for resources by regular expressions, checking obscene language in any applications running in Windows. The search and prohibition of pornographic content is carried out using keywords, the program does not work with "white lists", but it is also able to protect the child from viewing unwanted materials.
