PROTECT YOUR ONLINE KIDS IN REAL TIME FROM ANYWHERE
There's a new instantaneous way to protect your children when they
go online. Parents know that their children need extra protection in
the real as well as the virtual landscape. After all, the Internet
brings the world into your home. Unfortunately, many parts of our
world have undesirable elements. Most parents are aware that there are
many products and services designed to protect children who go online.
Most of these work by blocking access to dangerous web sites, and by
keeping track of where they go, with whom they are chatting and any
other type of correspondence in which they may engage. But the problem
with all of these safeguards is that they can only alert you to a
problem after some time has passed. That time can vary quite a bit.
Normally, most parents usually review their children's activities at
the end of the day, but even then it could be too late. A clever
abductor could arrange something within a few short hours or even
less.
Actiontec 's Kid Defender takes parental controls to the next
level. That level is the ability to monitor what your children are
doing online instantly, at any time and from any place you have an
internet connection. In other words, you now have the ability to watch
what your children are doing online as it happens. And if you see
something inappropriate, you can stop what they are doing immediately,
and it can all be done remotely.
Installing Kid Defender is an easy setup. Just install it on your
child's PC and the PC from which you will be monitoring everything.
Set up is a breeze. In fact, you don't have to know anything about IP
addresses, gateways, routing or whatever. Kid Defender will
automatically seek out the route from your computer to your child's PC
and initiate the monitoring link for you.
Kid Defender notifies the parents every time their children go
online and then displays on your computer's screen exactly what they
are seeing on their screen. And if you have more than one computer or
child you wish to monitor, parents can use their same single computer.
Pressing a key displays the screens of the different computers you are
monitoring. If your kids are different ages for example, and you wish
to define different blocked web sites and user names, you can do that
as well. That's because in addition to the real-time monitoring
ability, Kid Defender also lets you define blocked web sites and
people you know you don't want your children to contact.
Additional features let you save each day's activities in case you
need to review what they did at a later time. Kid Defender keeps track
of all web pages visited as well as transcripts of all instant
messages and chat room conversations. For those parents who may have
some pangs of guilt when it comes to monitoring their children, Kid
Defender does not work surreptitiously. Your kids will see a small
icon in the system tray that alerts them that you are there, watching
what they are doing as caring parents should be.
Kid Defender is more than just software. It actually is a service
to which you subscribe. The CD includes the Kid Defender software as
well as a one year subscription for the real-time monitoring ability.
You can also download the software and pay $4.95 a month to give Kid
Defender a try. Either way, the software comes with a license to
install Kid Defender for two parents monitoring two children.
Real-time monitoring licenses for additional children is $2.95 per
child per month.
In this day and age of sexual predators, pedophiles and other
lowlifes lurking online, Kid Defender is a modern day tool to be used
by justifiably concerned parents everywhere.
Kid Defender is currently only available for Windows 98 or later.
