Hi all, thanks for yr inputs.


I've eventually bought the software \"Child Control 2011\" after installing the 30d trial version. Quite happy with it as it fulfills all my criteria as follow:

1)\tSupport my PC OS (windows 7, vista)
2)\tSet time limit for computer, internet and program usage
3)\tSet different time limit for a specific website (like facebook)
4)\tFilter / block specific websites
5)\tAllow extension of computer time by issuing one-time use token
6)\tReport/Log the websites visited with date & time stamp
7)\tHave web interface to be accessible remotely from other locations over the internet
8)\tUnique account settings for each child
9)\tOne-time payment for the software (no yearly subscription fee)


While searching, I came across two free software. However, I didn’t download to try. Not sure is it good & free from virus. However, if you've used any of the free software, pls share yr feedback.
