The internet is a scary place especially if you have kids that are on the computer so it is important to have good internet security. Shaun and Shae LOVE to play on the computer so thankfully we got an opportunity to review F-Secure Internet Security 2011.
F-Secure Internet Security 2011 is a fast and easy-to-use software that keeps viruses, worms, spyware, and harmful Internet sites away from your computer. You can explore the wonders of the web without a worry. Keep viruses, identity thieves and hackers away and enjoy the surf.
Some of the key features that F-Secure Internet Security 2011 offers that I thought were pretty cool was the new Browsing Protection feature that tells you which websites are safe to enter and which you should avoid. Harmful sites are blocked automatically to ensure safe surfing while renewed Parental Control keeps children safe from inappropriate web content you which websites are safe to enter and which you should avoid.
I found F-Secure Internet Security 2011 pretty easy to install and to set up. There is an parental control option where you are able to set up parameters for young kids as well as teens in regards to what sites are appropriate but after spending about 30 minutes playing with it with no success I disabled the feature. I haven’t gone back since the initial setup to look at the option but plan on it since we just got Sabreena her own laptop for Christmas.
