just a note on filters, if its for yourself ok, but if you have kids, remember the younger they are the more computer savy they are. I’ve heard that if the kids know enough of what they’re doing, they can get around the filters.

Just a story that proves how good teenagers are, there was a story probably about 15 years ago in a local yeshiva (mesivta age) well, somehow one kid got onto the computer and in a very short amount of time changed everyone’s grades. After calling numerous computer experts, they finally got someone REALLY processional, it took the guy a few hours, and he said it took the kid 1 minute and 20 seconds to do it, and if they knew who the kid was, he would hire him on the spot. (they asked all the kids about it, no one came forward)

The point is that kids are better at computers than we think (or would want to know) and we have to be careful.
