This invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling user access to websites. A user profile is stored for each user. The profile includes a restriction requirement. Each accessible website has an associated restriction rating. If a user tries to access a website, the restriction requirement of the user is compared with the restriction rating of the website; access is only allowed if the result of the comparison indicates that access is allowable. Advantageously, this arrangement permits users to define the restriction requirement to be met by the restriction rating of websites to which the user is allowed access.
