Abstract:
A user of a wireless device logs onto the computer system via the wireless device, a land based telephone, a computer, or other communication means via the Internet, land based telephone lines, or other communication devices. The user identifies himself or herself by the logging on process and then communicates with the computer system by inputting certain information into computer screens. Parents will have certain controls available to them to either preselect what their children will have access to at a subsequent log on or will be able to prevent their children from having access to certain material. After the user logs on to the system, the user will be able to determine what communications he or she will receive.
