No more Mr Nice guy

I've had it up to the back teeth with re-installing the kids computer because of viruses and I've told them if it gets taken down by another virus I'm killing Windows XP on it and installing Linux ... like it or lump it end of viruses it just works and keeps working...

My 18 year old step son is the prime culprit (no he actually is the culprit) he like all 18 year old lads has a fascination for porn, most if not all porn sites are designed to deliver a virus or some kind of payload to your computer and it doesn't seem to matter how many times I've told him not to visit those sites he persists, I've blocked network access with OpenDNS and Netelligence which filters out I'd say about 98% of them but it's not 100% ... 

I've not actually got an issue with him looking at porn... the only issue I do have is that the computer he views it on is a shared computer and his younger sister does all her banking on it... which is like playing russian roulette with a semi automatic pistol, it's not if you'll get shot it's more when.....plus every time it gets infected with a nasty virus all the kids lose everything in their profiles....which simply isn't fair

Anyway I've warned him and he's ignored me, so he's had his internet/computer access revoked indefinitely, He's lucky I was going to send his girlfriend a list of websites he visits on a regular basis.... but that's too cruel....

So his ass is banned .... it's the only way it seems
