IE8 security add-on question

I

Is there functionality in IE8, or in an add-on which can block certain
information being sent from IE8 to a remote web site.
E.g. if my kids started using my PC, can I stop them sending our address,
phone number, etc? I'm thinking of an add-on that would block certain text
from being sent to an internet site.
I know education is the best thing, but who's kids ever do everyhting
they're told ;)

Thanks for any help.

That being said, Tough Love is your best bet: Give your kids clear
guidelines about their online behavior and computer use as well as the
consequences of disregarding same. Then enforce the consequences.
