I like www.kidrex.org. Its free and is powered by Google. The whole crayon effect is pretty cool too!

i downloaded and tested and it seems to be relatively secure and smooth on os 10.4... and personally I think that this is a good product with a reasonable pricing scheme. I would suggest that since it runs full screen that a parent could possibly remove the exit button from the application or create a keyboard shortcut to exit and this would keep the kids off of the rest of the computer.

My system completely crashed and won't start after downloading it and removing it.

We will investigate the StopZilla listing; we have tested KidZui with various other security software packages. Regarding pricing -- presently, KidZui is sold on a household basis. If anyone has question, please contact KidZui at contact@kidzui.com. Thank you.

i downloaded and installed this and my stopzilla immediately went crazy, finding 8 infestations of hijacker spyware. stopzilla was able to remove it and kidzui still seemed to work okay. i understand that software sometimes appears to be spyware without actually being spyware, but just a heads up. i have another question about this software that does not appear to be answered on the kidzui site--if someone has multiple children does kidzui expect them to buy multiple subscriptions to the service?? Is it possible to buy one but have it run on multiple computers with multiple kid logins?
