Net Nanny is a software application that provides you with a complete set of tools to configure who can access the Internet, when, and what kind of pages they are allowed to visit or not. You, as the administrator, can create users and passwords, and establish different permission profiles, one for every specific group of users.

The installation of the program is, nevertheless, a pretty complicated process. On one hand, it is necessary to create an account and provide a valid e-mail address in order to be able to download the installer file. In case you would like to download it again later, you will have to log in with your previously assigned e-mail address and password. On the other hand, when installing it, it asks you to type a license key, something that most free and trial programs never do. That trial license key can be found on the download section of the developer's website. The installation process also allows you to define your administrator password, and - optionally - to create additional users and passwords.

Once you have finished installing it, Net Nanny works mostly as a system service, and you can always see its icon active on the system tray. According to the website, this trial version is supposed to work fully during 14 days - however, as soon as I installed it, it warned me saying that there was only 1 day left in the trial period, which (in most cases) is not enough time to test all the program's features. more
