PROPADEUTIC  After reviewing Content Barrier for the trial period my wife and I purchased the program. We have been making excellent use of it. I would highly recommend this program to anyone with children to protect or to adults who need it for themselves to limit their own surfing. (Especially those from xxxchurch.com or in a similar spot.)

Since we purchased this software, the company has provided updates to the program's database of restricted sites in the first week of each month. Today was another update (February 5).

My hope is that the developer increases the number of languages that are filtered.

We use the program on our 867MHz PowerBook in 10.4.8 with no problems whatsoever - oh, and after it initially sets it self up I have noticed no speed hit on web pages loading. A great product!

PROPADEUTIC  My wife and I have been running this program on her G4Powerbook (10.3.9) and my G3iBook (10.4.7) for two days of active surfing and computer use. Not a problem has been discovered. The program works great!

We're really pleased with it. The setup is easy... and intuitive... The ability to set a password separate from the user's login password is imperative - no other program we saw has this.

The blocking is very powerful... much more than Norton - and Norton doesn't even run on 10.4!!! So much is user selectable... as it needs to be.

The 30 day evaluation period is fabulous, too. We're confident that we will be purchasing the program, but we'll give it a few more days to be sure.

This program does what it says... and does it in an OSX way - without any interference to the way that we work. It is helping us be accountable for the way that we surf. Excellent!

GORDON T. WELCH  I don't know what the case is with other reviewers. I bought a Canon scanner and didn't like OmniPage, so I downloaded the demo of ReadIris and it works perfectly. So much easier, more accurate - and it saves straight to PDF, eliminating a few steps in the process.

I'm very impressed and will be purchasing ReadIris.

(The only trick was placing the scanner driver in the Root Application Support folder - it was detected and works perfectly!)
