For years I have used IPCop at home as a content-filtering firewall, protecting my kids from stuff they shouldn't see online. I noticed that IPCop seems to be stuck in a rather old release, with no real enhancements being done that I can see. So, I thought I would try another Linux firewall with a web GUI front end (to help my wife tune the filters when needed). I downloaded Untangle and am very disappointed - the internet connection seems to go down every 5 minutes with Untangle and I have to restart the content filter to restore it. Maybe its the box I'm using, but it seems very slow on the GUI part, too. I was wondering what others use and what your recommendations are for filtration of kids content at the firewall level. I'm shying away from software on the client, since we have things like iPod touches and iPhones that don't have ready content filters available. I have Smoothwall, but haven't tried it yet. Any ideas?
