23 ContentScreen Filtering Categories

ContentScreen allows a 'master user/administrator' to set the filter to screen desired content by selecting any of these 23 categories. All categories can be selected or deselected with the exception of the top 3 with the ContentScreen Family Edition.

Pornography & Recreational Nudity**:
Pornography refers to any content containing bare breasts or genitalia in a photo, drawing, or other sexual depiction. Recreational nudity includes naturism, streaking, and other unclothed or see-through clothing activities.

Adult Material**:

Personal Website Communities/Social Networking sites:
Sites where web page space is offered for free, such as MySpace, Xanga, GeoCities, Tripod, AngelFire, and others. Any URL categorized as such is not guaranteed to have each individual personal website sub-categorized, though we may do so from time to time.

These sites more recently have become focused by Online Predators.
