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 142.

Blocking services. See page 148.

