PC Tattletale

PC Tattletale Internet Monitoring Software & Parental Control Software Ever wonder how you will track your kids movements on myspace, facebook or any of the online instant messengers that don't provide a way for you to save a log file on the local computer? Have you ever wanted to know what pictures they are looking at? Have you wondered what their passwords are for websites or social networks? Well, there is a way. One way that I have found is PC Tattletale. PC Tattletale was easy to purchase, install and activate. And the best thing about it was that it runs in stealth mode. It was easy to configure (most options were default for me). Online bad strike, the download links did not work intitially. I found a demo link that did, I downloaded it and put in my key, and I was off to the races. I found, purchased, installed and configured this software in less than 20 minutes. Great experience. I will post back when I have gathered some data from it's running.

Pat proclaims that the same consideration and discipline a parent needs to impart on TV time should be also given to the time a child spends on the internet. Pat believes that talking to kids about how to value privacy and obey the rules set by the family are important. We here at KKCS think the idea of treating the web like a TV is very much a good thing for parents and their children. Of course web filters are also suggestion from the likes of CyberPatrol, Cybersitter and Safe eyes. We also like Net Nanny.
