Online safety help for parents

Controversial social networking sites like MySpace abound in cyberspace. They're hugely popular with teens, who swap way too much personal information. That’s why parents need to get involved.
The Wired Safety site is filled with tips for parents and information about fighting online threats.
Blog Safety offers a very handy guide to the lingo and secret acronymns and code phrase kids use to fool nosy parents.
Then there are the secret surveillance tools like Keystroke Recorder, a $29 application that creates a file of everything done on a computer so parents can monitor their kids activity.
Even more powerful is $100 program called Spector Pro that takes a snapshot of Web sites or pictures or anything that appears on your child’s screens for you to review.
Finally, when you’re at work and the kids are home at the PC alone, another $100 program called eBlaster will instantly email you an exact copy of everything your child does online… all the e-mail, all the instant messages, who they are talking to.
Here's another parental tip: Learn leet speak. Need help? Try this translator to see how it works.
