Sec. 2.2. (a) As a condition of probation for a sex offender (as defined in IC 11-8-8-4.5), the court shall:
(1) require the sex offender to register with the local law enforcement authority under IC 11-8-8;
(2) prohibit the sex offender from residing within one thousand (1,000) feet of school property (as defined in IC 35-31.5-2-285), as measured from the property line of the sex offender's residence to the property line of the school property, for the period of probation, unless the sex offender obtains written approval from the court;
(3) require the sex offender to consent:
(A) to the search of the sex offender's personal computer at any time; and
(B) to the installation on the sex offender's personal computer or device with Internet capability, at the sex offender's expense, of one (1) or more hardware or software systems to monitor Internet usage; and
(4) prohibit the sex offender from:
(A) accessing or using certain web sites, chat rooms, or instant messaging programs frequented by children; and
(B) deleting, erasing, or tampering with information on the sex offender's personal computer with intent to conceal an activity prohibited by clause (A).
If the court allows the sex offender to reside within one thousand (1,000) feet of school property under subdivision (2), the court shall notify each school within one thousand (1,000) feet of the sex offender's residence of the order.

(1) subject to subdivision (2), prohibit the sex offender from having any:
(A) unsupervised contact; or
(B) contact;
with a person less than sixteen (16) years of age; and
(2) if the court finds it is in the best interests of the child, prohibit the sex offender from having any:
(A) unsupervised contact; or
(B) contact;
with a child or stepchild of the sex offender, if the child or stepchild is less than sixteen (16) years of age.
