You or other family members may not remember placing the call, but its detail is on the telephone bill. When using the computer, resist the urge to access sites offering free software and in particular when a site is related to the adult entertainment industry. Because, most likely, accessing these sites could result in long distance bill problems. We are aware of repeat instances where consumers are offered free Web software that permits access to adult entertainment Web sites.
Many consumers fail to read or fully understand the disclaimer associated with access to the site.
Generally, the disclaimer informs the consumer that the connection to the local Internet Service Provider will end and an international long distance call will be placed. The disclaimer may provide rates and state that charges for an international call will appear on the user's telephone bill. With that click, a child has all rights within adult-content Web sites as any other user. Again, remember you are responsible for these types of long distance calls. Carefully read all information before you connect to a Web site and instruct all family members to do the same.
