Growing teen computer addiction

Woog Laboratories introduced <A HREF="http://www.prweb.com/releases/2005/11/prweb310913.htm">PC Moderator, a parental control device</A> that tackles the problem of computer addiction, particularly among teens. PC Moderator lets parents effortlessly, and with less conflict, limit the amount of time their children spend while they play games or chat online. Unlike parental control software, PC Moderator operates independently of the computer and cannot be easily hacked by tech-savvy teens. Easy configured, PC Moderator is compatible with most desktop computers, operating systems and applications. The small device easily and securely locks to the desktop computer's VGA (or DVI with optional adapter) video port. During setup, parents choose passwords and time limits for up to 8 users. PC Moderator simply shuts off signals to the display when the user is unauthorized or time is not allowed. PC Moderator contains a battery-backed clock and microprocessor enclosed in a compact 18-gauge, stainless steel case.
