An existing internet connection and online registration is required.
STEP 2:
Next, you’ll need to insert the McAfee Family Protection CD into your CD-ROM drive. On most systems, the
installer will run automatically; if it does not, access your CD-ROM drive and double-click the “Install Family Protection”
icon.
STEP 3:
You will be asked to register the Family Protection software. You will also be asked to create a username and
password in this step. It’s a good idea to write your username and password down and keep it somewhere accessible only
to you.

Once the installation of Family Protection is complete, you will need to restart your computer.

and password that you created during step 3.
Note for both CD and internet installation:
You can install Family Protection on additional computers (up to 3 total). You do not need to perform step 3 on each
computer. You can install Family Protection using the username and password from the first computer.
