Parental Control for Internet Access - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps

I am giving my Kaiser to my son, but have realised that he can access all those sites on his phone which have been barred on his PC.
Is there any way that I can block sites for Pocket IE / Opera.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Update -
Found a site - Airscanner which has a firewall for WM, but when I tried using it I realised that I could turn off Internet Access, but not selectively.
Anybody ever used this app? If there is a way of configuring sites that need to be blocked please let me know.
Thanks,

I know Pocket hosts allows you to edit the hosts file, and any site you want blacklisted could just point to 127.0.0.1 or something, but if you want to block categories of websites then I don't know anything off the top of my head.

How can I stop att unlimited from sending my internet connetion to being mobile

I need access to a direct ftp port with the http://65988.0023.XXX style connection but I can't get access to it unless I am using WIFI? what setting can I change to stop this?
try disabling the proxy settings, sometimes bypassing your networks proxy settings will open up all sorts of options you where once blocked from accessing
how would I go about that? I didn't know I was behind proxy settings? And do I need them to access medianet?
in your connection settings go to manage existing connection, select proxy settings and untick the box that says this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet and leave the box ticked that says this network connects tothe internet.
Ive disables my proxy settings for t-mobile Uk internet settings and now it connects alot faster and pages seem to be loading faster also
doesn't work... Darn this sux... I test it with www.msn.com and it still makes it pull up msn.mobile... how annyoing...
bump anyone have anything on this?
I would really appreciate help with this because I have to access a program that I can't otherwise.
If you're looking to hit an FTP site, then I'd grab an FTP client for WM and stop futzing with IE in the first place. Or am I misunderstanding what you're doing?
not it is not an ftp it is an http://112.2232.224:2324 type of site... that is all.
Don't know your carrier but here's a cab that disables the "hidden" proxy in AT&T and one that restores it. Worth a try?

YEAAAAAAAAAAA I don't know what happened... but since I installed your thing it works perfect. damn I was getting peaved... when I go to msn.com thought it still brings up msn.mobile though. Well at least I can go to anywebsite I want now.
Do I ever need to put the proxies back? I guess I should just put this on my card just in case.
Again, Thanks... What else am I able to do now?
In the Tilt, Internet Explorer's user agent string is locked to mobile internet, meaning that websites will see your device as a mobile device. If the site has a mobile site, it will automatically re-direct you to that. In WM5 devices, you could use software to change IE's user agent string to make it look like a desktop, but on the Tilt, you can't.
You'll need to get Opera Mobile if you want the internet to see your phone as a desktop.
I think for what your trying to do you need to use the MY ISP settings instead of medianet settings. But I don't know what they are anymore. I think you will also need the right data plan to use them.
does PIEPlus User Agent setting work with Tilt?

Is this true even if using PIEPlus? PIEPlus Tools>Options Plus>User Agent allows setting User Agent to IE 5.5 or IE 6.0 (which should be seen by websites as a regular computer) in addition to the default PIE setting (which is seen as mobile)

what is pie plus. First off, I tried using opera mobile desktop setting and when I went to www.msn.com it still comes up as mobile. Do I have to configure something further?
Lastly, I just told you all that the program for turning off the hidden proxies worked. So for what I was trying to do those programs the other person posted worked nicely. However, it still sucks that I can't bypass the mobile crap... There is a program called deepfish from microsoft that addresses the issue exactly, however the jerks won't let the beta out any further. I am gonna aaddress that issue in another post.
I believe the problem is something in the WM6 or the Tilt itself because Opera doesn't work either.
Boy I'm glad you guys worked on this. I upgraded to Tilt yesterday and was cracking my head against the wall trying to figure out why the HTTP addresses wouldn't resolve with the same settings I've been using in my 8525. @#$%#@ Hidden Proxy! lol
Cheers and Happy New Year!

In Opera Mobile go to Menu>Tools>Settings then change Identify as from Handheld device to Desktop computer.

Stop PIE from loading mobile sites

is there a setting or a fix to force PIE to load the non-mobile version of website, for example ESPN?
I searched but I end up coming up with a bunch of junk that didn't help me. I know that Opera does it, I was just curious if there was a way to do this in PIE. Thanks
I think it's to do with the User Agent string that Internet Explorer repors to websites. KaiserTweak offers the chance to change it, so if you change it to the same as your PC (go here to see yours http://www.hybrid6.com/webgeek/tools/what-is-my-user-agent ) then the website should "think" you're on a PC rather than a mobile.
I haven't tested this, but I'm pretty sure this is right!
thanks, I will play around with it, has anyone done this before?
If you change the string to report IE5 to the web server, you'll get what you're looking for. I did that for a while, but went back to the original settings as some sites tried to send content that my browser didn't like.
The other option is to load the site on the desktop, and transfer the real URL to the ppc favorites. This is what I ended up doing and it worked for most of the sites that I needed to get to.
Thanks, I can see what you mean, I will just make a bunch of favorites and import them into PIE. Thanks for the good idea.

Script for logging into websites?

Hi,
The wireless network we have at work requires us to first connect to the network (the easy part), then open a web browser (Opera) to login. In my Opera under Settings->Privacy->Password management, I've saved my username and password, however it doesn't auto-fill the form like it should on other websites. I've also had this problem on my laptop (auto-fill doesn't work), so was wondering if there's a script or software or something for me to automatically login instead of having to type in my username and password every time?
Looking at the login website, it says it's a Cisco Wireless Network (presumably that's the router used).
Thanks

Did you try for example a MortScript-based solution? (I don't think a GET-based solution would work, instead of the default POST-based one. You can, however, give it a try too, if adding the full URL, along with your l/p, as a bookmark, isn't a problem.)

The POST-based is probably the most simple solution actually - going to give that a try now on my laptop. As far as MortScript goes, I think it'll probably work, but I do need to get around to learning it first.
Quick question without going into the MortScript documentation - how would I go about either calling Opera, or ideally, send a http command through a script? I'm an engineer and part of my job IS programming, but don't program for any web-based stuff so a bit lost there...
Edit: nevermind, reading the MortScript manual now, seems fairly easy to follow, will try to figure it out myself instead of wasting people's time here
Oh, just tried the POST idea on my laptop, works great! Thanks! Now time to look at MortScript me thinks

Internet help NEEDED!

I am currently using a FUZE on tmobile, and the internet explorer is working through the START menu, however the main TF3d INTERNET screen DOES NOT WORK.. I was wondering if there is any way to designate that INTERNET tab to use explorer or another browser (since I'm guessing that ATT had is assigned to some of their crap and that's why it isn't working).
ALSO, I'm wondering what other internet programs are out there that I could use (opera, etc?). I'm hoping that some other browsers will be able to get sites that I can't get on explorer (remember, I don't get 3g since I'm using this on T-mob, but I don't know if that's why the sites arent working).
ANY INFO WILL HELP THANKS. (also, I'm not a hacker type, so please use laymen terms for this, and also more basic procedures)

Is there no way to make CC work through a proxy server?

Hi folks,
Our school features HD-beamers in every classroom, so chromecasts would be ideal for the teachers to present their stuff on a large screen.
That said our school is connected to the internet via a proxy-server, which offers content-protection.
I cannot touch the proxy-servers configuration so i would really need a way to make chromecast work through a proxy.
I managed to use my android-phone with the proxy via sandroproxy.
I am not a programmer and do not know about the problems in detail but from a general perspective it shouldn't be too difficult for the chromecast to direct all internet-connections through a certain server and port is it?
Would be glad if someone came up with a solution.

Chromecast is difficult because there is very little you can configure, and unlike your phone you can't sideload - or load apps in general.
Instead of doing it on a per-device basis, it might be easier to see if the WiFi access point or router can be made to go through the proxy, similar to how some routers can be made to connect to a VPN, etc.
I would think that all the setup needed would already be done for you on the AP side of things.
(if done correctly) You shouldn't need to configure anything it should all be setup to use the proxy on any connection.
Most proxies are set to only deny certain sites not all except...
Do you have to enter proxy information in your browser manually to get onto the net? If so or if IT comes in to setup your computer before you can browse with it the first time, then it's probably not set up automatically.
If you explain to your IT Dept what it is your trying to do I am willing to bet they can make an exception for the MAC Addy of the CCast.
