Thanks everybody for your suggestions, lil snitch is working perfectly, To answer the question why block ebuddy, I have used hardware (router) port blocking to block msn and aol messenger, but ebuddy as a 80:http port cannot be blocked that way. My kids are too easily disctracted ( like most of their peers) by instant messenging and using little snitch I can block these distractions during homework time and still allow them to stay in contact at other times.

Out of curiosity, which block just ebuddy? It just seems to be a portal to many other instant messaging and email sites Then again, why would someone just go to the real site to login???? -- Nicholas Pyers ([email protected]) "Heaven on Earth?"
