Due to a rapid increase in the number of porn websites across the Internet, finding porn is as simple as Googling the word ‘sex’. Therefore, failure to block porn and other adult content on your computer can have a serious impact on children as it has the ability to easily distort the tender minds.
If you are a parent, then you are most likely reading this because you are in a serious search of a means to block porn websites on your computer. In fact, it is the responsibility of every parent to take all the necessary steps to prevent their child from being exposed to online pornographic content.
How to Block Porn on Your Computer?
Well, there are several ways to block access to Internet porn. This can be as simple as configuring the HOSTS file to block porn websites from loading on your computer. Even though the HOSTS file configuration is capable of blocking unwanted websites off your computer, it can never be as effective as using a dedicated porn blocker program.
Apart from the Internet porn sites, there are several other sources such as social media and torrents from which porn can enter your computer. So, considering only the free options like the HOSTS file cannot be effective. It is always a wise option to opt for a commercial porn blocker such as My Porn Blocker so as to effectively combat the sensitive issue of porn.
My Porn Blocker is one of the powerful parental control software that offers foolproof solution in blocking porn websites and adult content on the Internet. The built-in content filtering features of this program lets you take total control of the way your children use your computer. The following are some of the highlighting features of My Porn Blocker:
-
Block Porn Before it Appears - Blocks porn silently by working in the background and stops harmful sites before they appear.
-
Works in Complete Stealth Mode - Runs silently by hiding itself from the task-bar, process list, start menu and add/remove programs.
-
Integration with All Search Engines - Blocked porn sites are hidden even on search engine results page.
-
Block Social Networking - Powerful parental controls allows you to block access to popular social networking sites like Facebook.
-

A complete list of My Porn Blocker features is available on the official website. You can download My Porn Blocker from the link below:
Porn Blocking - For Mobile Devices:
The danger of porn is not just limited to computer but has also spread to mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. So, in order to protect your children it is necessary to device a means to block porn on mobile devices as well. This is where a popular program called mSpy comes handy. This is a powerful content filtering program specially designed for the parents to monitor their children’s activity even on smartphones and tablets.
mSpy is available for download at the link below:
Supported Phones: Android, BlackBerry, Apple iOS, Windows, Tablets and iPad
Other Ways to Block Porn:
Even though the most effective way to block pornographic content is already discussed in the above paragraphs, there are also a few other ways that you can try out for free without having to purchase any additional software.
HOSTS File
As discussed earlier HOSTS file is a handy feature on both Windows and Linux operating systems that lets you block access to any URL on your computer. One can use this feature to easily block access to porn websites. The method to configure HOSTS file on your computer is discussed in my other article: Block Websites Using HOSTS File.
Safe Search
Popular search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo supports options to configure safe search settings on your computer so that porn or adult content does not show up in the search results. Although this feature can be handy to parents, it isn’t 100% accurate and hence cannot achieve comprehensive results. The safe search settings page for popular search engines is as listed below:
Google: Safe Search Page
Bing: Safe Search Page
Yahoo: Safe Search Page
I hope this post has helped you discover some of the effective means to safeguard your children by blocking access to porn on your computer and mobile devices.

Hi shrikant!

@ Abhijeet
There will be an option to set a Hot key combination during the installation process. For ex. Ctrl+Alt+F6. You can use this Hot key to uhide the program and see the logs or uninstall it. This is how you can secretly access the program.
Thanks.

Thanks for posting this, but I have a question this is great for controlling a machine that you own but what about visitors to the network? Guests that I allow to use my WIFI. Do you recommend something like openDNS? Or something else at the router level?
@ KSMOZ
Yes, for a network you can to use something like a firewall and maintain a long list of blocked URLs. However, for an individual PC, porn blocker can be handy…

Senior Contributor says
The best option is to install Open DNS - this is a setting that you apply to your router that filters out pornography, gambling, hate etc. You only need to set it up once using one device. No need to repeat it on your iPhone, tablet, tv, laptop etc etc. That’s because by filtering content coming in to the router, it affects every device in your house. Even your kids friends who bring their phone to your house will be filtered if they connect to your router. The only caveat here is that it will not filter content if someone connects to the Internet through their own data connection, e.g. the data plan on their phone. But since OpenDNS is free, its a great immediate step to take now.
