The web today is one of the greatest tools for online research and communication. However, the web also has content that can be considered offensive to some people. That is why Progressive Internet Services offers to its subscribers Progressive Internet Services SurfClean.

What Is SurfClean?

SurfClean is a solution for you or your business that allows the filtering of possible offensive sites from reaching your computer or the computers of your employees. With the SurfClean service you are given a username and password that you may use to "get around" the SurfClean system in case a site that you do want to visit is blocked by the service.

How Does SurfClean Work?

The SurfClean system constantly monitors the traffic of its subscribers, if SurfClean spots a web site that has been flagged as being an offending site, then the system blocks access to the site and sends back to your computer an Access Denied web page instead of the actual web page. The best part about SurfClean is there is no need to install any software on your computer, all the filtering is done automatically while you are connected to the Internet. Since there is no software on your system, it is very hard for a subscriber to "get around" the system without a username and password.

What Is Filtered By SurfClean?

There are many categories of web sites that the system filters for. For a complete list of these categories and their descriptions, please click here.
