We actually got a church group together (see http://faithsaves.net/internet-filtering/ on that) so that we each pay c. $4 a month for a service with better support than X3. I have had no problems of any kind accessing my bank(s), etc.<br /><br />With the job thing, at work none of the computers are filtered, but what you do on the web is monitored so you would get fired for looking at bad stuff. That may not be what you are talking about, though.KJB1611https://www.blogger.com/profile/09696273086955004524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20213892.post-31100874479445391082015-12-04T12:09:00.804-08:002015-12-04T12:09:00.804-08:00Pastor Kent,

Not very satisfied....I have the pay version of X3. Not very satisfied. Here are the reasons:<br /><br />1. Filtering software is incompatible with work computers. This is not an X3 problem, but all filtering software. If you use your computer for work with any specialized programs, you most likely will not be able to use any filtering software.<br /><br />Basically, if you transmit any information that is protected, medical, SSN, DL#, insurance, banking, credit card, the sites involved will not tolerate monitoring. In fact, you may be breaking the law if you allow traffic with that info to be routed through a filtering proxy.<br /><br />2. The way they do accountability is through a proxy server. This means there are periods of slowdowns if their server is busy. Be ready for a lot of "page cannot be found" type errors. Also, some banks and other high security websites will balk at the proxy connection.<br /><br />3. Tech support is not great. It is all by email, and some questions just go unanswered.<br /><br />4. Some important extensions and addons do not play well with a proxy server for the same reason the banks do not. They think your internet connection has been hacked and rerouted and lock you out. Same for google drive. Continual problems. No fix for this yet by X3.Farmer Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09637851494862726991noreply@blogger.com
