Profanity Filter

Do you ever got to web pages that had profanity on them?

I know one of the pages I read several times a day sometimes has some. It irritates me.

Well, while reading Lifehacker today, they had a link to a Profanity Filter. I haven't installed it yet, but it sounds interesting.

Once the script is installed, it uses a list with pre-defined words you don't wish to see. It replaces these words with ***.

Lifehacker made a sentence to see how it worked. The sentence came out:
This *** is the ***. Every *** on the planet should install this ***.
Sorta cool. You are suppose to be able to easily update the filtered word list. Allowing words by default it doesn't and adding words as well.
