network drives?
Hey now, don't you go dissing NetWare. It was the best thing out there for a long time.
Most schools have hardware firewall that blocks internet access to anything else except for Internet Explorer and in a way I agree with them (apart from choosing Internet Explorer) as it stops sypware from becomming a problem and where I work you can't download executable files.
Or they could just use Firefox and not block the students from seeing what it is they want to see.
Content blocking in schools is a great thing. No one wants to sit in a classroom and check regularly if some kid is browsing a porn site.The time spent watching these teens could be spend teaching and helping someone with school work.
If some kid wants to look up porn during school, then you've got have bigger problems than teachers wasting their time enforcing censorship manually (which is even worse than automatically).
I don't have that experience with what I've done once for a primary school.I used squidguard to block content. I downloaded an 8 MB text file filled with the internet.Ever since, there has been very little reports of kids looking up porn.
You do have a bigger problem, and it's that kids in that school would want to look up porn during class. All you're doing is blocking what they for some reason want to do.You've still got kids who want to look up porn for whatever reason, the only difference is that you're standing in their way.
and possibly explain it all, which is something everyone wants to avoid
