ParetoLogic Launches PGsurfer, A Free Software Application To Keep Kids Safe Online
Victoria, B.C. November 7, 2007 - In response to the alarming increase in Internet related risks to kids, ParetoLogic has launched PGsurfer, a parental controls software product, to the marketplace free of charge. Utilizing the strengths of ParetoLogic's other Internet security products, ParetoLogic PGsurfer features full customization options allowing for unique settings for each child and offers technical and social support through its PGsurfer Forum.
Noting that it is the success that ParetoLogic has enjoyed to date that has made it possible for them to offer this product free of charge, Elton Pereira, CEO and Co-Founder states that, "Through the development of our other online safety products we became acutely aware of the risks present for children using the Internet. We can think of no better application that fits our skills and knowledge than a premium parental controls software and it is our honour to do so free of charge."
Recognizing the diversity in cultures, values, and beliefs of today's families, ParetoLogic developed PGsurfer to be flexible and customizable in its settings in order to accommodate for the preferences and choices of individual families. Created with the belief that software is only part of the equation to keep kids safe online, ParetoLogic's PGsurfer Forum is available to all parents who desire information, education, and support regarding family online safety issues.
Moderated by specially trained ParetoLogic Technical Support staff, the PGsurfer Forum offers parents, caregivers, and teachers a safe place to ask questions and share information and receive PGsurfer technical support. Amanda Cooper, Director of Communications at ParetoLogic and primary blogger for the PGsurfer Blockwatch Blog encourages parents to "bring themselves up to speed on issues related to Instant Messaging, chat rooms, social networking, cyber bullying, and online predators. We can't stress enough to parents that knowledge and communication with kids is the key to keeping them safe online."
