Well, now you can filter via the Firefox browser. Glaxstar, a Firefox plugin developer, has launched an extension for the popular browser which allows parents to sandbox the internet. - -[Glubble][1], which, according the site, is short for global bubble, is essentially an extensive white list filter. With the add-on installed users can only visit pre-approved sites allowing parent to filter online content and control what their children are exposed to on the net. - -Glubble is a free add-on and you can grab your copy from the site, but keep in mind that it's currently in a beta test phase. - -There are a number of other content filtering solutions out there, but Glubble offers some very fine tuned features including the ability to search Google and only return approved sites. - -If you're familiar with the Ad-block Plus add-on, Glubble offers very similar means of building a whitelist and preferences can be set for children as well as adult users of the same Firefox install. - -Glubble is targeting children under 12, but frankly I'd be surprised if a 12-year couldn't figure out how to circumvent it.
