Observe mode action enforcement

Observe mode enables you to evaluate the effect that policy settings for warning or blocking

access have on network browsing activity before you implement them.

Use observe mode to track:

•

Visits to red, yellow, or unrated sites.

•

Visits to sites you have configured to block or warn.

•

Visits to phishing pages you have configured to block.

•

Downloads you have configured to block or warn.

Information compiled in observe mode is available by running queries. If you determine that

network browsing patterns are adversely affected by any current settings, adjust them before

disabling observe mode. Policy settings are enforced when observe mode is disabled.

Control panel option

You can allow or prohibit the appearance of SiteAdvisor Enterprise Plus in the Add or Remove

Programs control panel on a client system. If it appears, users can remove SiteAdvisor Enterprise

Plus. You might find this option useful in troubleshooting, but McAfee does not recommend its

application. By default, this option is set to prohibit the appearance of the application in the

control panel.
