[Libs-Or] Web Filters for Kids Computers

[Sean]

Hi Chris,
1) Dansguardian and 2) Squid + squidguard have worked well for us, and 
offer whatever level of control you might wish to implement along with 
access to the blacklists you might want to use (or not). The libraries 
in our consortium utilize filtering that ranges from the 
near-nonexistent to the quite strict, depending on library policy.

Dansguardian is free for non-commercial use, and Squid is free/GPL.

Good luck in your hunt!
