Need a Software Recommendation

[oSo]

Hey everyone,

Im basically looking for some sort of software for extra control over my younger siblings computer, Im looking for something that can shut off access to the internet at set times, restrict any un-savoury content, and that is also password protected. I checked the stickied thread but there wasn't anything there.

Thanks in advance,

There are tons of softwares to help with this. Here's a couple:

ComputerTime enables parents to set limits on the amount of time and the time-of-day when their children can use the computer. Whenever the computer is used, the user must log on with a password, and the limitations that are set for his/her account become active. You can set different limitations for each user, and also generate a list of codes (tokens) that can be given to a user to temporarily extend usage time. The user has also the option to pause time tracking by logging off or switching to Away mode. ComputerTime offers flexible limitation options, based on regular schedules, as well as daily limitations and weekend exceptions. The software provides no control over what your children are doing on the computer, the assigned computer time can be used any way they want, and does not limit or prevent Internet access.
