Web Filtering for Mac Kids

Web filtering applications, also known as "censorware" or "content control software", are programs designed and optimized for controlling the content displayed to a reader, and we're talking especially about Web pages. In most cases, this programs are used by parents that wish to limit their kids' access to offensive content, by schools and universities, and by companies that need to restrict their employees’ access to the Web while at work, and I don't have to explain how many "excellent time wasters" appeared lately, such as various blogging sites and YouTube or Hi5 and the army of their clones...

Maki Enterprise is a Japanese software company that develops a Web filtering software for Mac OS X and Mac OS 9.x kalled KidsGoGoGo, and this program was recently updated to version 11.7. This new version comes with an improved interface capable of better handling the multiuser systems, phrase judgment has been enhanced, as well as blog filtering and language analysis for Asian languages; but let's have a quick tour of this program and see what you're missing, especially if KidsGoGoGo is something new to you, shall we?

Apart from the blogs and website filtering that I already told you about, this program can also block explicit Podcasts loading done by browsers, iTunes and major RSS Readers. The Compulsory Safe Searches feature keeps harmful sites away from your family even when the Safe Search setting is "OFF".

Apart from blocking sites, KidsGoGoGo can help your children enjoy foreign Internet locations with its one-click site translation feature, as well as monitoring Spyware intrusions and monitoring and archiving instant messengers such as iChat, AIM and MSN!
The price of a license is 20$, and the OS X version is available as a Universal Binary, some features requiring OS X 10.3 or later.
