B' Anti Porn

B' Anti Porn is an intuitive application designed to help you block certain content from being accessed on your computer. The application can be used as a child protection system, especially considering the unrestricted access to adult content on the Internet.

Content blocker

The software does not allow the user to access a certain file or program, in particular images or image editors. The restricted content is identified by specific keywords that the software can detect within the filenames or metadata. The program can run in the background, constantly monitoring your computer for inappropriate content.
When attempts to open this type of files/programs, a notification window is displayed in the system tray area, indicating the action and the name of accessed instance. Moreover, certain software functions are password protected, including closing the software. Thus B' Anti Porn can block the user’s attempt to close it and stop the monitoring/restriction.

Reliability issues

Although B' Anti Porn is password protected, the software does not allow you to set the initial password. Instead, the lock phrase is contained within an executable file called DatX Editor.exe, that you can find in the download pack. You can easily open it, then change the password protecting B' Anti Porn and the keywords that it monitors.
DatX Editor is not protected, which makes it very easy for other users to simply change the access password or keywords from there. Moreover, the software does not block text files or access to webpages that contain one of the keywords mentioned in DatX Editor. In other words, the most important settings that define the functionality of B' Anti Porn are left unprotected in an easily accessible file. Hiding this file makes it impossible to initially open the software or change the keywords.

Child access and activity protector

B' Anti Porn is a tool designed to protect children from being exposed to inappropriate content for them and it can be an educational tool, since it blocks access to such files/programs. The software could benefit from reliability improvements, such as adding the keywords to the password protected area or allowing the authorised user to configure the password the first time it opens the software.
