Configuring Parental Controls
Regulating Web browsing can prevent children and workers from accessing dangerous
content on the Internet, or having to make judgment calls over suitable relationships in chat-
rooms. The fact is, Web sites, chat-room users, and downloaded programs may not have
the best interests of you, your family, or your workers at heart. The unscrupulous may try to
manipulate the people you care about or try to gain trust, which may result in unacceptable
access to your family, your coworkers, your computer, or personal information.
Using the Parental Controls menu, you can prevent access to unwanted Web content by:
Blocking sites and keywords. See page 68.
Blocking services. See page 75.
Blocking devices and access types. See page 78.
You can also define report filters and generate reports. See page 82.
Blocking Sites and Keywords, and Selecting Trusted Computers
Using the Managed Sites menu, you can block access to certain Web sites from local
computers. To display the Managed Sites menu, click Parental Control in the menu bar.
Figure 38 shows an example of the Managed Sites menu.
