Help! internet porn

I'm pretty crap at this internet stuff. Have just typed in something very innocent and got downloaded loads of full on porn whose address had nothing to do with what I typed in. Have 3 kids. Anyone tell me how to stop these sites from downloading, otherwise will have to stop kids from using 'net?

Any advice (in single syllable words please!) will be GREATLY appreciated.

Trust my pamps friends may come up (excuse pun) with some help. Thanks.

They can be a bit over-restrictive ... i.e. I'm sure there are thousands of sites with the words willy or pussy on them somewhere (like this site now!) but Net-Nanny will filter them all out, porn or not.

Hope that helps
