To schedule blocking:

The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Security > Schedule.
5. Specify when to block keywords and services:
• Days to Block. Select the check box for each day that you want to block the
keywords or select the Every Day check box, which automatically selects the check
boxes for all days.

Day for 24-hour blocking.

Avoid Blocking on a Trusted Computer
You can exempt one trusted computer from blocking. The computer you exempt must be
assigned a fixed IP address. You can use the reserved IP address feature to specify the IP
address. See
