Google Images

[martin2001]

Is there a way to stop particular websites - or particular images - coming up on an Image Search in google. My year 9s have discovered that if they type a search term of [b][This has been edited out by Administrator][/b] into google images they get 4-5 pages of thumbnail pornographic pictures. They can't open any of them - the sites are all blocked - but a screen full of these images is quite sufficient to disrupt the class.

Any ideas?

Hello

This is something that you should inform Google about! We have no way to stop these images from being displayed unless you block the 'Google' web site

I'm very surprised that Google have let this slip through their net.

BTW: I've edited the search word out of your original post so other kids do not get to know it.

We had this issue for ages, but have now overcome it thanks to a new deployment of proxy software. If your proxy server provides the necessary functionality, you'd need to append the safesearch parameter to the end of all requests to google images. Alternatively, block google images and point them towards picsearch.com or similar.
