Folding Forum

My pleasure. Least I could do, considering.

Okay, I'll do my best to describe this as clearly as possible. I have a Fritz!Box 3390, a modem/router that I'd swear by for reliability. It wasn't cheap but it really is worth the money. However, I have recently discovered that the Parental Control functionality is rather lacking, as I will explain...

Having Googled this problem and searched the forums, this appears to have been affecting Linux system for years and has never been solved. I have tried various things, including installing xscreensaver and associated uti...
