I'm not so concerned since DH barely knows how to open a computer. However I realize it's the responsible thing to do...

I tried one once that wouldn't let me go anywhere. I needed a govt web page & it took hours to get it opened, so I got rid of it...

I do have Trend Micro & I have never had anything bad come up (not that I'm looking for it : )

Anyhow, if there are good filters that won't keep me from getting work done, I would be very pleased to get one.

Thanks!

Does it slow your phone at all? Does it block unnecessary stuff? Bottom line, do u feel it at all?

I have GenTech too. It doesn't slow down our devices at all but I do feel it blocks some sites unnecessarily. When the filter comes up that it is blocking the page, you can request the site. Their customer service is fantastic

Gentech!! have it on my laptop and on my phone for apps only.
when sites are blocked, you can request it and they allow it relatively quickly.
you can also email them and they respond quickly too.
does not slow devices bh.

How fast do they unblock? Is there 24/6 service or more like 20/6?

And does anyone know whether the phone needs to be there for set up or can they do it over the phone? Like with TeamViewer etc
