    I successfully installed FortiClient but can't install FortiClientEMS in any way. Getting setup error every time. Any help would be appreciated. Is it only installable on windows servers from now on?

    I have a good setup on my PC with forticlient.
    But how can I prevent other browsers being installed that can access vpn sites? I have tried the firewall, block internet for an application method but that's not really a solution.

    On my android phone:
    I use Nopox which is the best app in my opinion now.
    But when I'm really tempted I managed to press uninstall fast enough in the accessibility settings page.
    How can I disable this one area (heard it's com.android.accessibility) in the settings? Other than blocking the settings app that is.
    Thanks!

    Hi friends, this is my first post here. I am accessing porn from my desktop only. Have put up a few blockers now and unable to access porn from firefox, chrome etc. But, it is still not working because, every day i google and download some not so well known free browser, some of which are somehow able to show all the porn. What can i do to have a foolproof strategy to block porn on my desktop. I have installed porn blockers in my mobile and they are working fine(Also, i dont try to access porn on phone much)

    No, you wont be able to do that. There's a delay feature.

    Can you install Andoff without resetting your phone?

    There's a method with ADB. You could try that.

    Man.. Forticlient EMS installation does not work. "Setup failed". I've been trying to install it for 3 days now.
    I had it working once but I had to uninstall as I had a too restrictive setup and now it just won't work. It was perfect honestly in blocking adult content.

    Hi friends, i am accessing porn only from a windows pc. I have installed focusme blocker in the pc. it works well on all known browsers. But the concern is that, everytime i have an urge to cheat, i install a new obscure browser in the pc and access internet porn. Then after my access, i myself block that browser in the focusme app. Another day, could be another browser.

    So , my question is, whether i can block myself in windows from installing any new browser and do it irreversibly ( even a complete block on installing new apps is ok, since i wont need any new apps in the recent future.). Unless the installation block is almost irreversible or at least can be reversed after 3-4 days delay, this wont work, as known to this forum very well.

    sounds like plucky is the best method for you. it blocks adult content, plus any site you wish for all browsers. you can set a delay for unblocking after request for 3 days for example.

    Friends, Pls remember my earlier posts. Looks like i have found a good solution for blocking porn on windows pc. I have installed Covenant eyes app, which blocks porn on all browsers, including the obscure unknown ones i am able to find everyday. Although I have no accountability partner, Covenant eyes support has been very helpful, by keeping the password for my master account with them. they would only send me the uninstall code for the app , 14 days after my request. So, a decent solution, i guess.

    In my android mobile, there is bulldog watcher app installed, which blocks all visual porn very effectively, except for some story sites. Bulldog watcher has uninstall protection too but cannot block specific websites, like the story sites, which doesnt have any offending images. I am on the look out for one more android app to block the story sites, with the following features

    1. Doesnt allow me to uninstall easily (I dont have an accountability partner)
    2. When a block plan is active, should not be possible to turn off accessibility for the app.

    Can you please suggest anything?

    I tried to install EMS on a new system and several things happened: there was no option for start a free trial. Now it only syncs the license.

    When I went to manage profiles, there is no option to manage profiles...it just shows all of the different capabilities (remote access, web filter, etc.) and no way to upload a custom profile.
