      Which software?

      It would be interesting to hear from those who block websites which software they use and how effective it is.

      Thanks
      Richard

      I think that it is important to keep our children safe by blocking certain sites completely.

      Hi Duncan and All

      I was asked to give a presentation on e-safety at a conference in July, and this poll comes in handy. :) Thanks!

      I'll see if I can get a few more votes through twitter.

      I would of course be in favour of educating teachers and students, but the reality is that schools are too scared to go for long term solutions. They simply block the sites on the server. Not sure what software they used to have at the last school I worked for, Richard, but I can ask.

      Cheers
