Now you can take charge of what your children, employees or anyone else is doing while they're surfing online, without resorting to usually futile attempts at censorship or using complicated filtering software.

GURL Watcher helps you to establish a system of trust and responsible use, rather than trying to impose filtered access that may inadvertently cut people off from perfectly legitimate sites.

GURL Watcher silently watches the web sites displayed in a browser. Just install, configure, turn it on, and that's it. Every time your machine restarts GURL Watcher will automatically watch any browser activity and report it.

GURL Watcher works completely in the background to record all the sites visited by a computer's users. You can either save these URLs in a designated file known only to you, or email them to a designated address.

GURL Watcher for Mac OS X now supports application checking. This has been an often requested feature for parents who wish to limit the amount of time their children spend running online chat apps, games, etc. You can now easily set the elapsed time any application runs (chat, games, etc.) along with an idle time (the time which must expire before the application can be launched again). You also have the option to just be notified when an application is launched or quit (instead of actively terminating the application). See the Mac OS X Help page for more details.

No filter lists. No subscriptions. Just plain and simple Internet monitoring.

What customers are saying about GURL Watcher:

  • "I like this software because it allows me as a manager to let my group know that they are being monitored passively. I am not denying them access through a filter. This tends to be cumbersome at best, and is easy to work around. "
  • " I like the simplicity and power of this software. It doesn't slow down browsing or my system. It doesn't cause problems, it just does what it is supposed to do and lets me do what I am supposed to do."
  • "Filtering simply doesn't work and can't work well, for obvious reasons. GURL Watcher works well and I can easily review a day's activities within a few seconds. GURL is also a useful URL historical log for me. "

Teach anyone that you want them to use the Internet responsibly, and that you trust them to visit only appropriate sites.

GURL Watcher observes all sites visited using most popular Internet browsers.
