Parental Control

The purpose of Parental Control is to shield the young ones from the

shady sides of the Internet. It’s no secret that there is an abundance of

bizarre web sites inappropriate for kids (and most adults too, for that

matter). The Internet is not censored, but you can introduce your own

censorship to protect your children from viewing web sites with

undesired content—deliberately or not. With Parental Control you can

block access to certain categories of web sites, or even block all sites

not explicitly approved. In addition you can restrict the time a user is

allowed to surf on the net and specify what time of the day surfing is

permitted. In short, you can customize a profile for the individual user

based on age or other criteria you wish to take into account.

After you have installed Norman Security Suite, you must run a wizard

before you can start using Parental Control. The reason is that only the

administrator can configure the program, like setting the default profile,

create users, etc.

Running the wizard

1. When you have installed Norman Security Suite, status for

Parental Control on the Home page is Information. Click on this

link to launch the wizard.

2. The first dialog informs you about the scheme of the wizard and

which steps are included. Click Next.

3. In this step you should enter a name and a password for the

administrator. Only this user is allowed to configure Parental

Control. Make sure that you pick a password you won’t forget

since it cannot be reset. The password is case sensitive. Click Next.
