I want to block incoming pornographic material from the internet. How can I do this? I could not find a content filter setting.

Firefox has no built-in option for blocking porn.

A few options for you.

  1. Install the FoxFilter add-on, the downside is add-ons are fairly easy to circumvent - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/foxfilter/
  2. Install a 3rd-party parental control program such as the free K9 web protection - http://www.k9webprotection.com/
  3. Use the OpenDNS service, there is a free version, and with it you can filter content based on categories that you choose - http://www.opendns.com/
