Comments: Melora Ranney Norman (librarian) on Open Censorware

1. The filter doesn't need to be good at filtering; it just needs to meet Congress's definition.

2. I've already written such a piece of software, as has Peacefire.

3. Safari has a "Reset" feature which empties cache, cookies, searches, etc. which could be combined with a "Simple Finder" thing to do just this.
