CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This program provides parents with a reliable tool for shielding their children from objectionable material. We should note that to try the program, you must surrender your personal information at the developer's Web site--a requirement we found a bit objectionable.
Nevertheless, this program's features and performance impressed us. In our tests, the application proved intelligent enough to block almost all pornographic sites, yet to allow, for instance, scientific articles on nudity. We were impressed with the wide variety of filters--ranging from adult-only topics, such as sex and weapons--to potentially malicious e-mail clients and search engines. Also, you can control when a user is allowed to surf the Web. Not insignificantly, it blocks the use of popular instant-messaging applications and even multimedia players, too, though in our tests the pop-up blocker didn't work very well.
Safe Eyes is well-protected against deactivation and uninstallation, and its settings can't be changed without a password. Although many full-fledged PC-monitoring suites offer much of the same functionality, Safe Eyes 2006 still will help parents sleep easier at night.

Version: Safe Eyes 2006 4.5
Pros: Blocks websites
Cons: I put this on my wifes computer to block the kids from getting on anything bad... I went out of town and she called me and said it blocked the whole internet from working. I gave her the admin. password and it would not work. When it did finally work I told her to go ahead and uninstall it. When she did this it disabled our anti-virus software and deleted our IP address. After that it could not connect to the internet at all. Once I restarted the computer I kept getting an error message and the the computer would shut itself down after about 5 minutes. I restored the computer state to right before I installed this software, and now the computer is working just fine. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!!
