    Hello,Im looking for a 3rd party software that will block Myspace,from our computer,so our kids cant access it.
    Im also running a router (linksys BEFSR41).......could I use the router to block Myspace?
    any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Im running 3 computers Vista/XP/Ubuntu....so it might be best if I could block it at the router...Thanks

    Creating a free account with OpenDNS will allow you to setup various combinations of web filtering.
