Keep your kids safe while they surf the net! BumperCar 2.0: The Mac OS X web browser just for kids. Offering unparalleled content-control and customization features, BumperCar is the most powerful Mac web browser for concerned educators and parents alike. BumperCar earned a prestigious Best of Show award at Macworld Expo San Francisco and garnered rave reviews in the press. Now, the all-new BumperCar 2.0 runs on the same engine as Apple’s Safari and adds a host of new features for both home and educational use! New in Version 2.0 BumperCar 2.0 has been completely re-written using Apple’s WebKit, allowing for enhanced stability, speed and compatibility. We’ve also designed new homepage options for a wider age-range of children. Safety settings are now available across all accounts on the computer, so a parent who is logged in can change their child’s account settings without logging out. These is just a few of the hundreds of improvements in BumperCar 2.0! The BumperCar Star Page BumperCar’s start page is attractive and encourages children to explore a collection of kid-friendly sites. Browse the Internet by clicking on any of the categories, or type a destination in the Address or Search fields. Children may also guide the bumper car into the Tunnel of Mystery to be teleported to a random kid-safe site. BumperCar can be configured to be in a Home, School or Pre-School setting with personalized features appropriate for each location Filtering Forces Google (and other popular search engines) to use their SafeSearch features. This reduces objectionable content when a child visits these necessary sites. If a page contains a curse word, BumperCar will detect it and redirect to a built-in page. The profanity list is completely customizable by parents and educators. This checkbox allows parents to specify the information that children should not be allowed to type in a Web browser window… a child’s name or home address for instance. Children can only access the sites that are listed on an approved list of websites. The age-appropriate whitelists in BumperCar are easily modified to include the websites of your local school, church, or to reflect your child’s individual interests. To quickly and easily block a particular site, simply add its URL to a blacklist. Provides full filtering of pages whose publishers have self-rated their content. Prevents use during certain hours (such as bedtime) and limits the total number of hours your child can spend online per day.
