how do i block porn sites
Every time I search anything, I always get nude women, men, sexual content. Doesn't matter what words I type in, pornographic content is included in the images window... How do I stop this from happening?

Hi
There are several ways you can do this:
- Speak to your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Many have filtering and parental controls they can put in place to reduce the chances of seeing that type of material.
- You may wish to use a Firefox Add-on. A list of some that may help can be found here.
- There may be controls included with the operating system of the device that you are using. I recommend consulting a specialist Apple forum for help with this.
I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.

Whichever search tool you are using should have a setting that will help with this. Google, for example, under Settings has a Safe Search setting.
"SafeSearch Filters SafeSearch can help you block inappropriate or explicit images from your Google Search results. The SafeSearch filter isn’t 100% accurate, but it helps you avoid most violent and adult content."
There is a box to turn this on and another to lock it on.
The add-ons may be good, but starting Firefox in Safe Mode disables all add-ons.
Do a web search for Free Child Protect software.
