GamBlock gambling
prevention software, available here:
www.gamblock.com/
This product appears
to be the only one of its kind that does not require a password and, as
such, cannot be removed at will. It also appears to be
easily accessed over the internet, covers
every site associated with gambling (including those developed after the
installation of GamBlock), and can be downloaded and implemented by a
partner without the gamblers consent. The cost appears to start at $US40
for a 12 month licence.
