I am writing this to tell you about a program called "imsafer" Go to www.imsafer.Com to read more about it. Basically speaking it is free for now and it flags any potentially dangerous conversations going on between your children's existing IM accounts on the computers that you install this software to. The program includes monitoring of MySpace IM as well which I am interested in the most. You must have administrator rights to install the program and even if your youngster is computer savy enough to try and uninstall the program they wont be able to. They have to know how to log on to your monitoring account via the web and click the link that allow for the uninstall. If they don't know your email address and password they wont be able to uninstall it.
Katy and I installed it on the two computers that are hardwired on the network at our house and used all of the existing IM accounts that we found under our kids logon profiles. We used some of the conversations that are supposed to trigger the alerts and it works great.
If your kids use Myspace or Yahoo, AOL or Yahoo IM I would encourage you to give this a test drive.
