It is a program that filters "unwanted" content from ISPs dialup users. Some of the things it filters is pornography, with an assortment of others. It's up to the ISP on what they want filtered. I was wondering if any of you have had legal problems with something like this, or technical. Someone I know told me it either runs FreeBSD or Linux, but he wasn't sure. With a hacked-up squid, or started with squid.
