I agree there are files you may wish to keep private from your children. Financial, journals etc. We use Net Nanny. My Sighted husband set it up so I do not know if the set up is accessible. It allows you to set certain folders for your children to access. You can see how long they have been on the Internet (if you are a media restricter like me), you can restrict them from chats (not safe; scary place for children to hang out on) and various web sights. There is a log on so that parents and children may have different access. The program can be found under programs and the choice net nanny users. It is necessary to use the Jaws cursor to log in and out; but it is workable. Again, I didn't set it up but the logging screen is workable.
