    Installation

    Make sure your computer meets the system requirements test before installing this program (see Resources). Download the installation file to your desktop and run it. Restart your computer, and set up a password to configure the blocking settings.

    Expert Insight

    Keep your password safely. However, if you do forget it, Microsoft can email the password to you. Do not set the blocking settings too high, or you will not be able to access some websites that you use.

    Misconceptions

    While Windows Live OneCare Family Safety blocks a world of questionable content, it will not block every single questionable website. There is a chance one of them can slip through, and that's why it is important to keep the program updated.
