Using the Internet Guard Dog Interview

Although Product Name is set up to use security and privacy settings that are
appropriate for most users, some features require your input. The Interview
provides an easy means of customizing your Internet Guard Dog settings.
Each interview screen either tells you about a Product Name feature, asks you
to enter information, or asks you how you want Product Name to respond to
certain situations.
On each interview screen you can click Back to return to a previous screen or
click Next to move to the next screen. In the final interview screen, you click
Finish to save the settings you selected and close the Interview.
The Product Name interview asks you to enter the personal and financial
information that you want to protect. All the information you enter into
Product Name is stored in encrypted form on your hard disk—it is never sent
to McAfee Software.
You may want to gather your personal information before you start the
interview. During the interview, Product Name allows you to enter:
• A password that you can use to protect your Product Name information.
• Personal and financial information that you want to protect from being
sent out over the Internet without your knowledge:
