Restricting Internet content

The Internet provides you with a wide variety of information, but some information may not be suitable for every viewer. With Content Advisor (a feature of Internet Explorer), you can:

￿Set up a password.

￿Control Internet access.

￿Set up a list of Web sites that people who use your computer cannot view.

￿Adjust the type of content people can view with and without your permission.

Once you set up restricted rating levels in Content Advisor, users can view Web sites and other pages that you have specified under the rating setup. However, to view unrated Web sites or pages, they must enter the Content Advisor password that you have set. This means that any unrated page, even Help and Support or Internet Explorer, is not viewable if the user does not know the password. To allow access to an unrated site or page you approve of, open it and, when the password window appears, select the always allow viewing or allow viewing only this time option.

To enable Content Advisor:

1Click the Windows Start Button on the taskbar.

2Click All Programs.

3Click Internet Explorer.

4Click Tools, and then click Internet Options.

5Click the Content tab.

6In the Content Advisor area, click Enable.

7Click the General tab, click Create Password, and type a password.

8Click OK, and then click OK again.

Using Antivirus Software

When you use the computer for e-mail, network, or Internet access, you expose it to computer viruses. Computer viruses can disable or damage your operating system, software programs, or computer utilities.

Antivirus software can detect most viruses, destroy them, and, in most cases, repair any damage viruses may have caused. To provide ongoing protection against newly discovered viruses, antivirus software must be kept up to date.

Norton Internet Security, an antivirus software program, is preinstalled on your computer and includes a free trial subscription of protection updates. You can enable Symantec’s LiveUpdate™ to obtain protection updates automatically whenever you are online. HP strongly recommends that you protect the computer against new viruses beyond the trial period by purchasing an extended update service.
