"Thank You Fox 35 in Orlando!"
Pros: I heard about this on the news last night and this My Space stuff sounded pretty scary. Ive got two daughters and a son in High School and they've all got My Space accounts. I thought they were just chatting with friends. I had no idea that they were telling strangers about where we live and private details about our lives. I went to Fox 35's website and read about everything that happens on line.
I'm going to protect my kids. No more My Space. No more downloaded games. Not in my house.
Fox 35 said that I could get this software free for a year without any strings attached, so I tried it this morning. I also installed it on my work computer and am telling all of my friends about it.
It was simple to install and works great. I can't believe all these programs that showed up after the program scanned my computer. It didn't take too long and must have found at least two dozen things I've never head of. Best of all, those pesky pop up ads are gone. I hate those!
I recommend this to anyone who is a parent. If you are concerned about the privacy of your home and your information, you need to give this a try.
Fox 35, you're the best. If anyone from the station is reading this, how can I find out how to attend one of these programs about preventing online bullying and My Space protection? Your article online was great, but I'd like to make it to the next class with my kids, now that we're better protected.
Cons: I've only got two issues.
1. Both of my computers run just slightly slower, but it's hardly noticeable. My husband suggested that we start the program after we boot up the computer. I'll try that later.
2. I don't know how much this program will cost us next year, but if it works well and keeps our kids safe, that's all that matters.

Do yourself a favor. Scroll down to use the control panel at the bottom left corner, and then sort reviews by date instead of review score as they are by default. Now read those reviews to get a more honest picture of this software.
You would also be wise to enter "aluria" into google and see what you get.
