Follow Up:
In the same vein: all *right-thinking* people should read
http://zapatopi.net/mindguard/
If you are convinced (as you undoubtedly will be), download the
source code for "Mindguard" here:
http://zapatopi.net/mindguard/mindguard-0.0.0.4.tgz
You will need to install libgtk1.2-dev to compile it.
Not surprisingly, this *crucial* program is not included in the Ubuntu
repositories - "They" don't want you to use it !!
