It's designed to prevent kids from accessing user-specified Web sites, but this flawed application won't let you manually add URLs to the restricted list and it failed to keep sites on the list from opening. WUPC Web Control for Parents' functional, password-protected interface can be called out of hiding with a hot key combo. It works by recording visited Web sites and allowing you to sort logged URLs into the categories of allowed or restricted sites. This seems a bit backward, as most programs of this type allow you to specify which sites can't be accessed before your kids visit them. Unfortunately, WUPC Web Control for Parents doesn't allow you to manually enter URLs. What's worse, we were easily able to access sites classified as restricted. This program doesn't have any other features to manage Web access, so you can't schedule appropriate times for Internet usage, capturing screenshots, or recording keystrokes. The trial version limits you to three restricted URLs. WUPC Web Control for Parents doesn't deliver what it promises, and parents should seek a more effective way of limiting the sites their kids can visit.

I wonder, who needs .asia domain? I cannot imagine, what would be useful for Microsoft.asia? Toyota.asia? Then let's register .europe (if .eu is too short). Or perhaps Microsoft.southamerica, Dell.australiaandnewzealand, Coca-Cola.africa... Sound funny? Then why not just use the global and country domains? Or perhaps it is time to drop the domains at all?
