McAfee Parental Controls - Total Protection Product
Detailed Internet Filter Software
$69.95
Though McAfee is a big name in the computer software industry we couldn't help but be disappointed in their filtering product. Though the filtering functions cover IMs and chatting, email isn't really protected. There are Computer Time Management features and Detailed History Reporting but overall the top picks offer way more management and filter features.
Pros:
Cons:
•
Effective Blocking Functions
•
Complex Interface
•
Higher Price
•
Lengthy Installation
Detailed Review of McAfee Parental Controls
Features
Not many. Above we listed our favorite: Detailed History Reporting and Computer Time Management. We wanted to see more email protection, which is an essential for most of the other products we reviewed.
Filtering Ability
There were significant holes in the filtering ability. Email protection was very underdeveloped.
Usability
A bit difficult to use for a first time user or a less computer-skilled person.
Installation
We had no problems with the installation.
Summary
Don't assume this product is the right choice based on the name brand. Try our top picks for a better choice.
