As a regular subscriber I looked back through my back issues and can not find any reviews on Parental Control software. I searched the internet and found a few other reviews which seemed to rate Webwatcher as the highest. My prime requirement was to be able to block adult content sites.

The company who supply Webwatcher do not offer a short term test option so you must purchase before you can test the effectiveness of the software.  It has a great interface and it is possible to set the controls per login to the PC, however it failed dismally at blocking sites.

To be fair the supplier worked hard with me to correct the problem and, even after downloading the latest version, it would still fail. It was suggested that I monitor the sites visited by the children and then block them - not an option I was prepared to entertain.

So, even though this software came top in several reviews, it was totally unusable from my point of view. Again, the supplier had no quibbles in repaying my money, so the problem is with the software and not the support.
