Chapter 31 McAfee Internet Security 155 Filtering Web sites You can filter (block or allow) Web sites for all users except those that belong to the Adult group. You block a Web site to prevent your children from accessing it when they browse the Web. If a child tries to access a blocked Web site, a message indicates that the site cannot be accessed because it is blocked by McAfee. You allow a Web site if McAfee has blocked it by default but you want to let your children access it. For more information about Web sites that McAfee blocks by default, see Filtering Web sites using keywords (page 158). You can also update or remove a filtered Web site at any time. Note: Users (including Administrators) that belong to the Adult group can access all Web sites, even those that have been blocked. To test blocked Web sites, you must log in as a non-Adult user-but remember to clear your Web browser's browsing history when you're finished testing.

Filtering Web sites
You can filter (block or allow) Web sites for all users except those
that belong to the Adult group. You block a Web site to prevent
your children from accessing it when they browse the Web. If a
child tries to access a blocked Web site, a message indicates that
the site cannot be accessed because it is blocked by McAfee.
You allow a Web site if McAfee has blocked it by default but you
want to let your children access it. For more information about
Web sites that McAfee blocks by default, see

(page 158). You can also update or remove a
filtered Web site at any time.

group can access all Web sites, even those that have been
blocked. To test blocked Web sites, you must log in as a
non-Adult user—but remember to clear your Web browser's
browsing history when you're finished testing.
