CEN Offers a 60-Day Free Trial of the Smart Zone Kids Browser to Help Parents Keep Children Safe from Internet Predators
If you would like to have your children safely browse the Internet, be protected from online pedophiles and not distribute information about themselves online, this might be the most important website you'll ever visit.
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) January 17, 2005 -- The Children’s Educational Network
(CEN) of San Diego, California today announced that they will provide a free
trial of their kid safe browser, “Smart Zone Kids”, for a full 60 days of use in
order to help parents better safeguard their children from the increasing threat
of internet predators. Smart Zone Kids is a parent-controlled Internet browser
and community suite of client-server applications and software components
(email, chat). Smart Zone Kids is used to assemble a safe, secure and
educational environment for children to navigate the Internet; send and receive
email; and participate in chat room discussions without fear of predators
contacting them. Finally your child’s online experience truly lies in parents’
hands.
Unique features of the Smart Zone Kids Browser include:
• List
Protection For younger children (ages 4-10), we have created a browser where the
computer user can only surf pre-approved websites deemed appropriate by
teachers, staff members and parents.
• Filtered Internet Protection: For
older children (ages 11-18), we have filters that block all forms of
inappropriate content on the Internet.
• Spam Free Email: Children can only
send and receive email from parent-approved friends or relatives. They will
never receive spam or inappropriate email!
• Language Filters: Language
filters help prevent children from typing bad words in our closed chat rooms.
Our animated characters politely ask the child to rewrite his or her
message!
• Personal Information Filters: Personal information filters help
prevent children from giving out personal information, such as phone numbers,
names, addresses and any other information in our closed chat rooms. This helps
teach children safe Internet etiquette.
• Desktop Lockdown: With desktop
lockdown turned on, children can only surf the Internet with our safe closed
community browsers. Other ISP parental controls (like AOL) allow children to
just minimize the ISP browser and then surf a completely unprotected
Internet.
• Co-Exists with Other Browsers: If all family members use the same
computer, there's no need to uninstall your favorite browser. Simply run Smart
Zone Kids when your child is ready to surf, and it will remain in place until
you close it.
• Complete Parental Control: With our web-based administration,
parents can control every feature of this superior technology. It is easy to use
and every parent can find peace of mind, knowing their children are learning and
being entertained in a protected Internet environment.
The child protection
features offered by Smart Zone Kids are not found in other browsers such as:
Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Opera. Smart Zone Kids allow children to
experience the hi-tech world without being exposed to its dark side. “With CEN's
technology,” says Greg Writer, CEO, “children around the world are able to
navigate the internet safely in an educational environment safe from pedophiles
and other online predators that lie in wait just a mouse click away from your
children. And now, it’s available free for 60 days.”
