There are a number of programs that filter Internet content.  Three good ones are
CyberPatrol
CyberSitter and
NetNanny.

They cost less than $40. All have free trials, so you can take each for a test drive before you buy. You'll find them at, respectively:

    http://www.cybersitter.com/
    http://www.netnanny.com/

Both America Online and MSN offer ways to limit access to the Internet's darker side.  While these controls are meant primarily for children, you would not be able to go to certain Web sites.

You could also use an Internet Service Provider that does filtering.  Below are links to three such companies:

If you need something more adult, check out accountability software.  One such program is X3watch, which is offered by XXXchurch.com, a ministry that battles online pornography. With this program, you designate an accountability partner. X3watch makes a record of any questionable sites you visit, then e-mails the list to your accountability partner. It also makes a note if you close the program.  X3watch is free. You can get it at: http://www.x3watch.com/   XXXchurch.com is run by two young ministers. They offer numerous tools to battle pornography addiction.  Included is a month-long series of workshops, called 30 Days to Purity, that you can take online. There also is a toll-free number: 1-888-309-4218. You can check out the XXXchurch at: http://www.xxxchurch.com/.


An accountability program also is provided by Promise Keepers, a group dedicated to helping men grow as Christians. Eye Promise is $6.95 per month. Like X3watch, it e-mails a list of Web sites visited to a partner. It's available at: http://www.promisekeepers.org/resc130
