For the last few months my kids have been using our Desktop PC to play kids games online, or chatting with friends.My question that came across my mind was; what if my kids are getting into some kind of bad website, how would I know? How do I ensure Internet Safety for my kids? And what do other parents do to Protect Children Online?
Today I came across this website that contains a very useful scanning tool.
“CheckMyPC” is a simple to use application that checks computers for unwanted content.
It rapidly scans Windows XP and Windows Vista computers, identifying content that may
be questionable. Not that I want to be a mistrusting of my kids, but it never hurts to
have a little more knowledge of what they are up to. There are all kind of bad influences
out on Social Networking Websites, or maybe there are some strange people out there who are
up to no good. CheckMyPC performs thousands of checks to find content that is already on
your PC that might not be appropriate. Instead of spending hours and hours trying to
determine what is on my computer, since I don’t have much time I will get “CheckMyPC”
to do it for me! — and in only a matter of minutes.
