If you have kids, you should have this:
Naomi

I just installed on all the computers I have - it seems really good.

Men - if you have a problem yourself with adult content - have your wife install it and put the password on - it is SUPER easy.

WHAT IS NAOMI ?

Naomi is an advanced internet filtering program, easy to use and totally free, intended for families, and kids in particular.

Naomi is able to constantly monitor all internet connections, protecting children from inappropriate online material - such as obscene or violent contents; p0rnography, pedophilia and erotism in the form of images or texts; sites that popularize drugs; gambling games; terrorism; hate propaganda; occultism; sects; blasphemy, etc.

Naomi does not rely on a simple list of banned sites; instead, it examines in real-time all the data being transmitted and received through any internet application - such as web browers, chat programs, news readers, etc.

The filtering technology employed in Naomi features:

* Heuristic analysis capable of recognizing new material automatically.
* Semantic analysis of web pages contents and analysis of their addresses and links.
* Recognizes all the major languages (10+).
* Recognizes ICRA labelling system.
* Monitoring is not limited to web sites, but covers the whole local internet traffic.
* Works with all service providers and software applications, and does not alter settings.
* Allows blocking of file-sharing applications.
* Password-protected (the password is chosen during the installation).
* Easy to use: does not require configuration.
* Can be used on slow connections (it does not perform any download in background).

How would this program affect someone that studies health care online...particularly reproductive health care? (I knew of a filter where families couldn't get to certain health, science, or women health information because of key words).

not sure - I did not have any issues - try it - if it does not work - uninstall it - low risk to try!

Can the program be terminated without entering a password?

Another great web-based alternative is OpenDNS. This works with any OS. It's free, it's fast, it's great.
