Hi,
A while back I sent out this message:
Hello everybody, I have a technology question for you.
I know that if you go into Tools, Internet
options,security, restricted sites,sites You can block
off certain websites. What is happening is that the
kids are getting on the Internet and messing up the
computers. We take Benchmarks (tests)on a certain site
on the Internet. Is there a way, other than blocking
off individual sites, to keep kids only on the one
Internet site? I appreciate any help you can give me.
Thanks, Margo
I didn't get too many responses. These are what I did
get:
I think the application Web Whacker might work for
this purpose. The student isn't actually on the
internet when the site is web whacked and is a
stand-alone file.

-------------------------------------------------------
We use a system called Fortress. Only our computer
tech guy and I know the pass word and can get in.
Students do not have access.
------------------------------------
Webwhacker is an offline browser and with Fortress you
can only get to whatever the tech people decide, I
guess. I suppose it depends on how much money you
want to spend and which one best suits your purposes.
Thanks to all who responded.
Margo
