Safe Eyes
Internetsafety.com Safe Eyes review
Software

Although not the worst parental control software, Safe Eyes is comparatively expensive and isn't foolproof.

KidsWatch
Computer Business Solutions KidsWatch Professional review
Software

A potentially brilliant parental control package that's let down only by an apparent weakness in 64-bit systems, and a vulnerability to proxy software.

Net Nanny
ContentWatch Net Nanny 6.5 review
Software

Net Nanny impressed us with its broad spread of features, plus the ease and effectiveness of its default protection. It's the best parental control package around.

CyberPatrol
Cyber Patrol Parental Controls 7.7 review
Software

CyberPatrol feels long-in-the-tooth, with middling performance and a fiddly interface. We hope the next release improves it.

Family Protection's default setting is far too lax for kids and too restrictive for adults.

Norton Online Family
Symantec Norton Online Family review
Software

Online Family is easy to configure and friendly to use, producing great results. Sadly, it's not infallible.

Fallout New Vegas Robot battle
Fallout: New Vegas review
Gaming Software

Everything we loved about Fallout 3, and much more. New Vegas improves on the original in almost every way.

K9 Web Protection
Blue Coat K9 Web Protection
Software

We still like K9's free, effective and simple web filtering, but it loses out to other free packages, which offer a wider scope.

The Learning Bubble - child learning software
Software

The Learning Bubble is good for encouraging younger children's learning on a PC, but its apparent fallibility concerns us.
