SUMMARY
When you use Microsoft Plus! For Kids Protect It! to set access restrictions on your computer, you will not be able to restrict access to the Network Neighborhood if the computer is on a network.



MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft Plus! For Kids was designed for stand-alone home computers, not for computers on networks. Therefore, the Network Neighborhood cannot be restricted using the Protect It! program. Similarly, Dial-Up Networking is not disabled by Microsoft Plus! For Kids, Protect It!, although a universal modem restriction can be put in place for a family member.

Even though Protect It! cannot prevent access to the Network Neighborhood, it is possible to limit access to network shares and set up user-level passwords through the Network tool located in Control Panel. For more information about performing these tasks in Windows, see your Windows printed documentation or online Help.
