Tool Time Friday | Let’s Get A Little Foxy Filter

Recently called “THE Parental Control for Firefox”! FoxFilter is a personal content filter that helps block pornographic and other inappropriate content. All filtering features are free! Premium features available with small support fee.

Just read these reviews -

“This is one of the best and most useful add-ons I’ve seen in a while. It is very effective and flexible. It’s also easy to use. My hat’s off to the designer. This will be a great tool for keeping my young kids away from bad web sites.”

“I have tried a few different filters for both Windows and Ubuntu and by far, this is the easiest to administer in a home environment. It’s not free but $10 for a five computer license.. it’s almost free and compared to the headache of managing Net Nanny or proxies like squid/Dans Gaurdian it’s a steal.. ”

“FoxFilter is still my favorite by far. OpenDNS offers a free version, but you have to put up with advertisements. Their ‘deluxe’ version is $9.95 per year, so that is not free.”

“I have tried other filters and such out there, but this one is really easy to use and works really well. This one makes it easy to add sites on the fly to the list of ok’d sites plus I can temporarily turn off the filter while I’m using the computer. It will even turn the filter back on for me when I restart Firefox if I choose that option.”
