You must have an Internet connection through a local network or a modem to
use all McAfee Internet Security features. Some networks have an Internet
connection that you can use by connecting to the network – either directly or
through dial–up networking. Your computer must have a modem installed if
you don't connect through a network.
You can establish an Internet connection through an Internet Service Provider
(ISP) such as MSN, AOL, or Earthlink, etc. An ISP acts as a middleman
between you and the Internet. Your computer connects (using your modem)
to the ISP's equipment, which in turn connects your computer to the Internet.
In addition, you must also have a browser. A browser is software, such as
Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator, that allows you to view
text and graphics and download files from Web sites.
