A computer, terminal and a method for blocking the use and creating of vulgar and pornographic material in a responsive and interactive matter that comprehensively monitors computer operations for creation or transmission of vulgar and pornographic material. Data created by the keyboard, data passing through the clipboard, data selected by the mouse pointer, and data passing through the Internet interface are monitored for content and further operation of the computer terminal is blocked. The computer terminal may only be unblocked by a supervisory intervention, such as by entering of a password, or by restarting or resetting the terminal. Key word searches, such as those in Internet search engines, are also monitored, but the terminal adapts to monitor not only for words of a profane and vulgar nature, but also for words that are behaviorally tested to produce lists containing vulgar and profane items, e.g., Internet sites. The computer terminal and method can be modified to block other forms of communication or computer operation, such as blocking transmission of secret business data, blocking execution or opening of certain programs or files, and the like.

The present invention provides a system and method for input of images containing faces for accessing, linking, and or visualizing multiple similar facial images and associated electronic data for innovative new on-line commercialization, medical and training uses. The system uses various image capturing devices and communication devices to capture images and enter them into a facial image recognition search engine. Embedded facial image recognition techniques within the image recognition search engine extract facial images and encode the extracted facial images in a computer readable format. The processed facial images are then entered for comparison into at least one database populated with facial images and associated information. Once the newly captured facial images are matched with similar “best-fit match” facial images in the facial image recognition search engine's database, the “best-fit” matching images and each image's associated information are returned to the user. Additionally, the newly captured facial image can be automatically linked to the “best-fit” matching facial images, along with comparisons calculated, and/or visualized. Key new use innovations of the system include but are not limited to: input of user selected facial images for use finding multiple similar celebrity look-a-likes, with automatic linking that return the look-a-like celebrities' similar images, associated electronic information, and convenient opportunities to purchase fashion, jewelry, products and services to better mimic your celebrity look-a-likes; health monitoring and diagnostic use by conveniently organizing and superimposing periodically captured patient images for health professionals to view progress of patients; entirely new classes of semi-transparent superimposed training your face to mimic other similar faces, such as mimic celebrity look-a-like cosmetic applications, and or facial expressions; intuitive automatic linking of similar facial images for enhanced information technology in the context of enhanced and improved organization, classification, and fast retrieval objects and advantages; and an improved method of facial image based indexing and retrieval of information from the web-crawler or spider searched Web, USENET, and other resources to provide new types of intuitive easy to use searching, and/or combined use with current key-word searching for optimized searching.

Methods to adapt a user interface view, provided by an integrated media/search web site via a global informational network, based on a user's lifestyle are disclosed. The methods include populating a user interface view of the integrated web site with a first set of links to the global informational network, wherein the integrated web site integrates a streaming digital media provider station with a global search engine.
