Customer Reviews of Net Nanny's Chat Monitor
Unreliable I didn't have any problems loading the software, but it isn't recording all of the chat sessions. The summary report says that there were 35 sessions, yet only 10-15 files are sent. It is incapable of properly recording ICQ chats, even though it claims it can. Information at the website indicates that there is a patch to "ungarble" ICQ chats, but when I attempted to load the patch I received a message that my software was already up to date. I wrote to tech support, got an auto response, but never heard from them again. Internet Explorer crashes constantly on each of the computers that I have installed this software on, and we weren't having that problem prior to installation. I am uninstalling it and looking for something else.
Very Difficult to Work With For Any Parent
This software is very difficult to work with. Installation is especially difficult and the only way you can get help is if you pay almost $20 for a support call. I found the instructions very scant and after installing it, decided the hassles of getting it to run properly were not worth the trouble. I would try a number of the free downloads first available on CNET. Ended up uninstalling the software. Also, looked at all the reviews from USA Today and Reuters and they all say this software is either "clunky" or needs more patches.
Problems Installing Software - Virus
I went to install Net Nanny Chat monitor following their installation instructions exactly. Unfortunately Net Nanny requires you to turn off any Internet security programs to install the software. After I installed the software and then restarted my computer per the installation instructions, I received a Windows message labeled "Windows NT Authority System." My PC then went into an endless restarting mode whereupon I lost total control of my PC. I contacted Net Nanny through phone and email and a tech support staff member responded by phone and told me that the Chat Monitor software makes the same RPC calls that triggers the Blaster Worm virus. Net Nanny attempted to provide me with minimal support to fix the problem but ultimately had me contact my manufacturer, Dell. I was very diligent in keeping my Virus definitions up to date and running them and had installed Microsoft security patches. I did not have the Virus before attempting to install this software as far as I know.
