There are several products that perform this function. Each has
pros/cons, and different features. The ones I know of are: CyberSitter,
NetNanny, SurfWatch, The Internet Filter, and CyberPatrol.
Typically they blocks content that can be separated in to either
graphics or text, and can filter on: Violence, Profanity, Full/Partial
Nudity, Cult, Drugs, etc.
It's not that off-topic since firewall vendors have started including
this type of service as an optional feature into their products.
