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.

Try safeeyes.

I have using it for 3 years
Hi YMB.

Do you need to pay yearly for Safeeyes? Website shows US$ 49.95 subscription fee per year. It seems expensive.

KidsWatch Prof is one-time payment for 3 PCs at US$ 49.95. After the first year the Website Filtering component is renewable at an annual cost of $29.95. All other features are not subscription based and will continue to function forever.

KidsWatch is rank as #1 in http://parental-time-control-software-review.toptenreviews.com/ This website gives a comparison of the features among the top few products.

However, K9 Web Protection seem doesn’t have the features that I need. That is,

- to allocate few hrs (e.g. 2hrs) within a period of time (e.g. 1pm - 9pm)
- to generate a daily report the list the websites visited with date & time
- to monitor chat

I’ve done a search in internet and found KidsWatch Professional which includes time management, website filtering, chat monitoring, chat alerts, predator watch & reporting. One license allows you to install on up to 3 PC’s. It costs US$ 45.95.

Have anyone use this software before?
Or know of any other software?
