Now porn filtering from Microsoft with its Bing search engine will provide safety to your households, especially your kids from porn.

These days porn is easily available in the net and hence it has become accessiable to anybody, including kids.

Two changes was made on Bing:

• Firstly the potentially explicit images and video content will now be coming from a separate singe domain, explicit bing.net. This is invisible to the end customer, but allows for filtering of that content by domain which makes it much easier for customers at all levels to block this content regardless of what the SafeSearch settings might be.  This makes it much easier for filtering software to block unwanted content if SafeSearch has been turned off.

• With this change, parents should be able to use parental control tools to block that domain and therefore block the images and videos. Almost all third-party filtering tools can be configured to block specific domains or sites, as can the parental controls in Microsoft Vista and Mac OS X.

Apart from this, Bing will begin returning source url information in the query string for image and video content so that companies who already use this method of filtering will be able to catch explicit content on Bing along with everything else they are already blocking for their customers.

Microsoft spokesman David Burt said the company has reached out to more than 25 filtering and security vendors to work with them to provide a solution for filtering explicit content while using Bing, in an email.

These new features should also make it easier for schools and businesses to filter student or employee access to explicit content.
