On this page, you can set restrictions on time spent on the Internet or working on the computer.

By default, no time limits on computer and Internet use are set.

You can set time limits using a table with timeslots or by specifying time intervals.

Setting time limits using the table

1.Select days of the week and time when the user is restricted from accessing the Internet, and then mark the corresponding timeslots blue. Methods

•To mark one timeslot, click it once.

•To mark several adjacent timeslots, click the first slot once and select the rest of required squares while holding down the mouse button.

2.Select days of the week and time when the user is restricted from using the computer, and then mark the corresponding timeslots red. Methods

•To mark one timeslot, double-click it.

•To mark several adjacent timeslots, double-click the first one and select the rest of required timeslots while holding down the mouse button.

You can also create different setting profiles for one user. This option allows you to easily switch between existing setting profiles (for example, you can set different time limits for the academic year and school holidays).

To create a setting profile

1.Select the No restrictions mode or a user profile from the list.

2.Edit the table as necessary.

3.Click Add.

4.Enter a name for the created profile and click OK.

Specifying time intervals

If you want to specify the total number of hours when the user is allowed to work on the computer, select the Interval time limit option. Please note that this mode does not allow to set time limits on Internet use.

In this mode, you can set time limits on computer use during the following periods:

•From Monday to Friday

•Saturday and Sunday

You can also restrict a user from accessing the computer during the night-time period regardless of the total number of hours when access is allowed.

This option allows you to let your child manage the time spent working on the computer during the day by themselves.

Note

Setting time limits for using the computer or the Internet automatically enables the Block changing of system date and time option on the Self-Protection page of the main settings.
