Opens a dialogue window in this area where you can block specific web content for the user currently displayed. Check the categories you wish to be blocked. Click on OK and the websites that fit the blocking criteria will be blocked.

If you click on the New button, a dialogue window opens where you can define your own blocking criteria (also called blacklists). To do this, first give the name and, if you want, any additional information about the filter you are creating.

Then click on OK to open a new window which lets you list the content you'd like blocked by this filter. Add a term under Filter that is to be blocked, and under Search location indicate the parts of a website that should be searched for the term.

Here, you have the following options:

•URL: If you set the checkmark here, it will search for the text that should be blocked in the web address. For example, if you want to block websites like www.chatcity.no, www.crazychat.co.uk etc., you can simply set chat as a filter, and check the URL option and then click on the Add button. This way, you can block all websites in which the word chat appears in the domain name, i.e., the Internet address.

•Title: If you check "Title" it will search for the term that should be blocked in the website's title. This is the short website description you see, for example, when you add a website to your Favourites list as a bookmark. For example, if you want to block websites like Chat City Detroit, Teenage Chat 2005 etc., you can simply set chat as a filter, and check the Title option, then click on the Add button. This way, you can block all websites in which the letter combination chat appears in the title.

•Meta: So-called meta tags are text entries that are hidden in websites. They are there to help search engines find relevant content or just to boost a website's visibility. Search terms like sex or chat are often used here to increase the number of hits a website receives. If you want to block websites in which chat appears among the meta tags, it will suffice to enter the filter chat, check the Meta option and then click on the Add button. This way, you can block all websites in which the letter combination chat appears in the meta tags.

•In the entire text: If you want to check all readable content on a website, just add a term that should be blocked – for example, chat – then check the In the entire text option and click on the Add button. This way, you can block all websites in which the word chat appears anywhere in the website text.

Of course, using filter terms that are too general may also block websites that are perfectly harmless. Thus a blocked term such as cash can also cause entries for cashew nuts to be blocked.

Websites that accidentally get filtered can be removed from the list using the Exceptions function. To do so, just click on the Exception button and add the term (e.g. cashew) to the filter as an exception.

You can create and delete your own filters as required in the Personal filters area. For more information, see the section Personal filters.
