    I got it installed but when I run it it says: “Nanny daemon is not started. To use the parental control, please start up the daemon.” Of course, it gives no hint as to how to start it. Grrrr. :roll:

    Strange, for me worked without any problem. Did you installed Nanny on ubuntu or another linux distribution?

    How do you change the NANNY error page… when someone goes to an un autherized site ?

    We want to have something else besides the NANNY PARENTAL CONTROL message…

    All people deserve very good life time and loans or just collateral loan will make it much better. Because people’s freedom is grounded on money.
