PICS (Platform for Internet Content Selection) is a property of response object that can be used to specify the value to the PICS label response header. Its a kind of rating system used to rate the contents in a web site.

Even META tag can be used to add a rating to the site.

Microsoft IE 3.0 and above and Netscape 4.5 and above support the content ratings. You can set the ratings in IE 5, by selecting Tools and Internet Options. Select the Content tab and click the Enable. When the rating exceeds the defined levels the Content Advisor will block the site. You can set the ratings in Netscape 4.7, by selecting Help and NetWatch.
