I'm looking for ideas to protect my kids when they're on-line, and reaching out to Slashdotters for their collective wisdom. I'm looking for the most effective strategy and tools/products to accomplish this goal, and thinking of a desktop/gatweay dual approach. I'm sure there are decent open-source server-based tools out there that could block out unwanted apps and URLs/content, as well as commercial/open-source tools for the desktop. Does anybody have a strategy to share?"
