Anyone use this on the MAC? I used it before when both the kids were on a PC, since I get it free from our service provider. It worked fairly well controlling their internet usage. I would get emails if they got a site they wanted to go to and I could deny/approve it.

They are now using our old iMacs and I am using Lion's built-in Parental Controls. The constant popups about blocked web addresses with the Ok/Add is a pita. I am fine with it blocking most of those sites, but is there a way to disable the constant popup questioning the site?

With Norton Safety Minder there would be a popup but it would fade away shortly and didn't require any interaction from the kids. Unless of course they wanted the site added.
