Buy Auctions Books Lycos Family Safe Search Lycos takes the initiative in providing Family Safe Software. Pornography, sexually explicit material, expressions of hate and other such topics are becoming increasingly rampant on the Internet. According to a recent study, nearly half of all cybercitizens who reside with children are concerned about pornography on the Internet. In addition, nearly a quarter of all Web users who do not have children also expressed a similar concern. Web users have a strong desire for search engine tools that will help them screen out adult sites and adult banner ads from children's eyes, but still offer the flexibility to allow adults to view the adult material themselves if they wish.
Search engines that permanently block out adult material are less desirable.
Lycos continues to lead the way for Web users, ensuring that pornographic material stays out of reach of children. To this end, Lycos is pleased to provide you with ways to filter out offensive content. On this page, you will find links to prominent filtering software companies that allow a download of their tools at a special Lycos price. Stay tuned to this page as Lycos brings even more innovation to the concept of family safe searching. Inc. All Rights Reserved.
