 * 5) Set the rating as desired.

Internet Setting Restrictions will remain global for each user on the computer.

NOTE: After you remove Protect It!, the Internet Settings you set through Protect It! will remain if you are using Internet Explorer, version 3.01 or later.



MORE INFORMATION

 * 1) Launch Internet Explorer.
 * 2) From the View menu, click Options.
 * 3) Click the Security tab.
