Family Shield from OpenDNS!

As you guys already know I promote the use of OpenDNS to filter the Internet to your home.  Well they just announced a brand new service called FamilyShield that requires almost zero setup!

What does FamilyShield block?

• Adult websites that are unsuitable for kids
• Proxy and anonymizer sites commonly used by savvy kids to bypass traditional Web filters
• Phishing sites that aim to trick you into handing over personal or financial information
• Some virus-spreading malware websites

You don't get the flexibility of the full OpenDNS service but what you do get is a dead simple way to keep the bad stuff off of your home PC.  Go to their website to get started right now. http://www.opendns.com/familyshield/
