How to Monitor Your Child's Internet Usage
Kids are getting their first internet access to web at younger ages than ever before. Children that are able to use the internet will be better prepared for high school, college and the job market. As web become increasingly common among children, a number of problems have cropped up.
Anyone can pretend to be anybody on the web and kids are in great danger especially if they send out personal information and pictures of themselves. It is our responsibility to know what our kids are doing. Parents need to remind them of the potential risks of their actions on the Internet. It is important to explain it without scaring them.
So, what can parents that they have not already done? Here are some tips in monitoring child's internet usage:
Ask your children where they use the internet: library, school, a friend's house, etc. Who are your children's friends? Communicate with their parents.? Ask them if they monitor their child's internet usage. If not, ask your child not to use the internet at that child's home.
Explain the rules. No matter how you choose to monitor your child's Internet use, it is important to let them know that you will be a part of the computer time. Explain that you are doing it for their own safety.
Discuss what kind of things are not OK on the web. Tell your kids what types of websites are acceptable and what are not. Explain what images they should not be sending or viewing. When discussing the web, ask your children to inform you about people saying sexual things, asking for asking for their contact information or to meet them.
Use software with parental controls features that
can be set to only allow usage at certain times or to certain websites.
Put your child on a schedule and make sure they follow it. The best
choice for the parental control is a HSLAB Access Control Products Family software.
Join your child while on the web to play games and see what other things he or she likes. Try to place your home computer in an open space area. You should always be able to see what your children are doing on the web.
Monitor bookmarks and history records. This will provide an information on the kinds of sites your children are visiting.? Recent software innovations have made it possible for parents to install site blockers into their browsers. If you are concerned about sites your child visits, don't judge him or her; you can always block those sites, if necessary.
The best thing any parent can do to protect their child is to be honest and open. If you let your child know about the abuses of the internet and that they are able to speak to you without being judged, they will come to you when these things happen or if they have questions or concerns.

Takeaway: Execute programs when you logoff with this utility.
But what about when the user logs off?With group policies, you can set a logoff script that executes command line utilities when a user logs off. But what about a logoff version of the StartUp folder? Now you've got one in the form of Shutdown Folder.
What's Shutdown Folder?
Shutdown Folder is freeware from HSLab. It allows you to execute programs on a user's machine when the user shuts down his or her computer. For example, you can place a program in the shutdown folder that erases all of the temporary files on the computer when a user shuts it down.
Windows 2000 Professional and Windows XP allow you to create Logoff scripts and control their execution by either local or domain group policies. Even so, these scripts can be cumbersome to create and kind of kludgey to use when just executing a few programs. And for Windows 9x workstations, you can create a batch file to execute programs and shut down your system, but this is equally inelegant.
Shutdown Folders creates a special shutdown folder that works just like the Windows Startup folder. Drop the icon of the program you want to execute in the Shutdown folder and it executes when the user shuts down the system. You can use it to do such things as delete temporary files, copy files back to the network, run disk checks, send logoff messages to people on the network, or whatever you want.
HSLab makes a full-featured version of Shutdown Folder Lite called Shutdown Folder. The full version of Shutdown folder will automatically clear out temporary and Internet files, clear print jobs, and blank out My Recent Documents. Shutdown Folder is licensed on a sliding scale starting at $39.95. The more you buy, the more you save. You can find out more about licensing costs and features at HSLab's Shutdown Folder Web site.
Obtaining and installing Shutdown Folder
You also can get the free Shutdown Folder from the HSLab Web site. The file you'll download, Hslab-shutdown-folder.exe, is just under 2 MB in size, so it won't take very long to download. When the program finishes downloading, execute it to begin the installation process.
Shutdown Folder Setup program works just like every Setup wizard you've ever used. Follow the on screen prompts. You won't encounter any gotchas. At the end of Setup, you can start the Administrator program.
Running Shutdown Folder
The Administrator program allows you to start and stop the folder service. To make the program work, you should enable the following check boxes:
- Enable Shutdown Folder Actions
- Start Service With Windows
- Process Before Logoff As Well
- Accelerate Shutdown Automatically
Click Apply and then close the Administrator.
To add an item to the folder, click Start | Programs | Shutdown Folder.You'll see that the folder itself is empty at first. Right-click the Shutdown Folder menu item and select Open. Drag and drop the programs you want to be executed on shut down, and you're done. You may need to create a .CMD or .BAT file along with a Windows icon for it if there's something special you want to do, but other than that, you're ready to go!
