Yes we all know how dangerous the Internet is. We are not even going to go into this. When you are on the Net you are one click away from the most defiled material in the entire world.
I, myself, even after all the ideas used in this post, still post and manage this blog, almost always, via a blog client (email or Windows Live Writer).
But if you must use the Internet, here are some good ideas to keep this dangerous tool under check.
First thing is:
For heaven sake – turn off the pictures! This is easy to do in any web browser. Yes its boring without pictures, but get one thing strait:
It is impossible to be an authentic Jew and still “enjoy a complete internet experience”. You just can’t have both, so come to terms with that.
You can always turn them on again when you know you are in “safe” territory. If you come to terms with picture-less browsing you already have protected yourself from a great part of the Internet dangers.
Second Thing:
Purchase and install this program:
This, together with pictures off, will take you a long way.
Third:
Make sure EVERY PC in your possession is protected with a filter. Don’t rely on KOSHER internet providers. There is no such thing! They might help but you cannot rely on them alone. I personally use this one and am very satisfied with it:

And of course do not forget to DAVEN that Hashem should save us from all Tumah!
We are not endorsing this as a way to a “Kosher” Internet, but certainly a “Better” one.
