Internet Filters

Hi
I run a small youth club, we have 4 computers running windows and connected to the wireless internet connection in the building.

We really want some form of internet filtering for them. Im not really interested in software that needs lots of management like typing in all the sites I want blocked. I simply want to install it and know that inappropriate sites are blocked.
I looked at netnanny software but that was quite a large cost and needed an annual subscription, I would prefer a one off cost.

Any ideas?

Many thanks
chris

Personally Iv never used parental control / filtering but here's a few ideas:

http://www.cyberpatrol.com

http://www.bsafehome.com

http://www.parentalcontrolbar.org/index.htm

Quote from wikipedia:
Windows Vista built in Parental controls: Allows administrators to control which websites, programs and games each standard user can use and install. This feature is not included in the Business or Enterprise editions of Vista.

... (consider upgrading to vista maybe?)

This information is just from searching, as i have never used these programs, i would recommend that you read through the web sites before downloading or buying and software, to make sure it is legitimate

Hope this helps
