I would like to open up and mention an important point regarding the use of technology today and our accessibility to many things. We are currently living in a time where information can be accessed better than ever before. There is information out there, that we can reach out to, without the need of going to a library, a special school, or by other means. It is through Internet, where We can access almost any piece of information right in the comfort of our own home. A Rabbi I heard giving an impressive shiur called it something like a Fire.
  A Fire is something that if we use it properly can be very good for us. For We need fire as heat to keep us warm, as a source from which we can cook and prepare food for ourselves, and also a means by which we can generate energy to give off light. This same fire can be dangerous as well and if We are not careful,we can get burn ourselves. We have to realize that the Internet can be a good thing to use, if we take the proper responsibility,and use it for things that can help us in a good way.We can go to one end of the scale and surf the net picking up information in the form of images that can do a lot of damage to us spiritually.Why don't we go the other extreme and make good use of this fire and not get burnt. Can you believe that you can access information that can push you to such great heights spiritually. Surf the net,and find sites like Torahanytime.com , Mastertorah.org , and other wonderful Torah sites. I can't stand the Schmutz and don't want to get burnt. I am utilizing the internet the proper way,by using it for Torah, with k-9 Web Protection as a fence for greater protection in the event the Yetzer hara can get too strong. I suggest that people should bear this in mind if surfing the net,and  go the direction of maintaining your kedushah. It is really not worth it to get burnt!
