McAfee Internet Guard Dog

Self-Administrator

The Internet Guard Dog Administrator may designate another user as a
Self-Administrator. This feature may be used if for example, the user is an
adult and is deemed responsible enough to customize his privacy and
protection settings on his own.
This user can access Internet Guard Dog features and change his settings, not
anyone else's.
See the Internet Guard Dog online Help to view step-by-step instructions on
how to designate a user as a Self-Administrator.

How password protection works in Guard Dog

Whenever you start Windows, Internet Guard Dog prompts you to enter the
password you set during the Interview. When you enter an incorrect
password, it displays the hint that you provided when you created your
password.
Without the password you can still open the Guard Dog Home screen, but you
won't be able to change your CheckUp Settings or Protections Settings. Also,
Internet Guard Dog won't let you use the Password Manager information in
Browser Buddy or send out information protected by Identity Protector.

Using the Internet Guard Dog Home screen

After the interview ends, Product Name displays its Home screen.
To do this
Add, edit or delete user profile; set Internet
filtering and other options.
Perform or schedule a virus scan.
