How do you block porn from appearing on your Mac?

**ClaireGreen** · 10-21-2011, 01:34 AM

I need to block all porn content from my Mac. My young friend uses the computer and I notice that when she is logging out, she clicks out of porn sites that are opened and tells me she doesn't know how they got there. The question I have is can porn sites pop out of nowhere and show their content out of the blue? Please help and excuse my ignorance in this. Thank you.

*insert joke here*

Malware can cause such pop-ups to appear, yes. But I thought Mac users were l33t and immune to that

If you think she's lying, demand to smell her fingers next time. Just in case, wash your keyboard- with ~~soap and water~~ bleach.

What anon said. Let's hope she didn't get any viruses on it...

And if she's hot give them a good licking too.

Yes, Funkin' ALWAYS offers sound advice.

The fact that these porn sites only appear whenever your friend uses your computer -- and not for anyone else -- kind of discounts the likelihood of a virus.

A lot of warez and crack sites have porn pop-ups/pop-unders, and sometimes these will keep popping up long after the original site is closed. But if that's the case, it's painfully obvious, since the popups will typically start immediately upon entering the site. Checking the browser's site history list should tell you all you need to know.
