ParentalControl Bar

ParentalControl Bar is a lightweight and intuitive software application that blocks access to adult-oriented websites. As the name of the tool implies, this cross-platform utility was specifically built as a parental control measure for making sure that children are shielded from explicit material while surfing the Internet.

At the end of the installation procedure you are required to set up a password, which denies other users’ access to the configurations applied. You can also add a hint to help you remember your parental password and an email address (in case you forget it).

ParentalControl Bar provides two modes for a safe web navigation session, namely child and parent mode. When the first option is enabled, the access to the specified websites is blocked. The parent control mode deactivates the settings you configured, and can be selected only if you provide the correct password.

You can create safe lists with sites accessible by your children, as well as lists with blocked sites that are accessible only in the parent mode.

Since you don’t need special computer abilities to work with this tool, setting up a secured navigation process seems nothing but a piece of cake. During our testing we have noticed that the program is able to block the access to the specified URLs efficiently and without errors throughout the entire process.

All things considered, ParentalControl Bar is a simple application that bundles only a few configuration settings for helping you block access to adult-oriented websites.
