Web content filtering for the home

A friend's teenager has just discovered **** and, apart their concern over the content, it's killing their monthly download limit. Apparently the kid has his own laptop that seems to be out of the control of the parents so a software solution might not be the answer. Does anyone have any recommendations for alternatives? Hardware or hosted maybe?

TIA

Mark

Sorry, but that's absolute cr*p! What they mean is that they're too soft to impose rules/punishments on their kid(s). What's wrong with 'do that anymore and you don't get ANY internet access at home'?
