Ken,

There are no ironclad systems available to keep out all inappropriate
materials when kids are determined to find them.  I run SquidGuard on
our LTSP server and run everything through a Fortinet firewall with
commercial content filters.  Even so, some of the young boys in our
congregation still manage to find wild Springbreak and wet T-Shirt sites
that have not been filtered.

It is has to be a combination of content filters, parental involvement
and denial of access to repeat offenders.  Sadly, church labs are just
as likely to have kids sharing urls that haven't been filtered yet as in
the public schools.  Then again, everyone knows that us church folk are
all hyprocrits anyway!
