  1. Re:"Protect" them. That's a nice word ... on Ask Slashdot: Good Low Cost Free Software For Protecting Kids Online? · · Score: 1

    You sir, are an idiot. Checking out boobs in a Good Housekeeping bra add is a bit different than stumbling upon an Anal-Fisting web site when they were trying to search for something innocent. It's not necessarily a question of them actively seeking out this type of material, but more what can be stumbled upon when searching for something completely different. Porn sites do a very good job of making sure they popup in as many places as possible. Try searching for cheat codes from some video game and see what pops up when you click along the results (something my kids do when playing games).

  2. K9 Web Protection on Ask Slashdot: Good Low Cost Free Software For Protecting Kids Online? · · Score: 4, Informative

    I've used K9 Web Protection for years. http://www1.k9webprotection.com/ It's free and does a pretty good job. I also setup my wireless router to use OpenDNS as an added layer of protection for any of my kids friends who may bring something over and connect to our wireless network. It's not foolproof, but you can setup a filter level and it does a decent job of stopping "accidental" clicks.

  3. Um, did ANYONE read the article? on How Microsoft Plans To Get Its Groove Back With Win7 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    How does a comment get tagged "Insightful" when it's completely obvious the person didn't read the article? It clearly states that there will be an emulation layer/virtual machine for supporting legacy applications. And to all the trolls that jumped on that bandwagon in response: You can have your opinion, but please make it an informed one!
