Setting Web browsing time limits

If you are concerned about irresponsible or excessive Internet
use, you can set appropriate time limits on your children's Web
browsing. When you restrict Web browsing to specific times for
your children, you can trust that SecurityCenter will enforce
those restrictions—even when you're away from home.
By default, a child is allowed to browse the Web during all hours
of the day and night, seven days a week; however, you can limit
Web browsing to specific times or days or prohibit Web browsing
entirely. If a child tries to browse the Web during a prohibited
period, McAfee notifies the child that they cannot do so. If you
prohibit Web browsing entirely, the child can log in to and use
the computer, including other Internet programs such as e-mail,
instant messengers, ftp, games and so on, but cannot browse the
Web.
