Block Adult sites ONLY

I want to only block access to adult sites. The parental controls makes me add each acceptable site individually, but this is too much of a hassle. All sites except the adult ones are fine. What is the easiest way to do this?

Hi em007

I found this on google search, you may find it of some interest.

It looks like a blocker that actually comes with a preinstalled data base of sites to block.

Hope this helps.

You could also try the Bumper Car web browser for kids.

Thanks for the replies, but I think I should have specified that this is not for a small child, so I don't want/need any of the extraneous stuff. I am only interested in blocking the x rated adult content, not stuff like music. Also, I want to make sure things like artwork and artists are still accessible. If a Google search is used, I don't want to have to approve each site that could be helpful in research.

Your best bet is Dan's Guardian + squid. I've used this combination and it works wonders. It blocks by keyword, PICS, and by several other methods that you can choose to enable or disable. If you add privoxy into the mix, you eliminate 99% of the ads out there.
