Cyber Patrol Protects Kids

6StarReviews researched and reviewed a variety of Parental Internet control software products to determine which ones work best and what will effectively protect your children during online activities. CyberPatrol is one of the parental internet control programs we researched and reviewed. The findings of our research are outlined below.

What's New?

• Version 7.6 has just been released.
• Parents can now choose between password protection or the warning-only option when blocked sites or pages are being accessed.
• User profile creation wizards have been implemented into the software.
• CyberPatrol is offering a free 14-day trial of their product.
  

User Interface and Product Application:
The installation of CyberPatrol was seamless with easy-to-follow prompts. The entire install process took less than five minutes, including download time. When you install CyberPatrol, the system asks you to select a password. This is the password that is used to administer the settings and create user profiles with the CyberPatrol program. This password is required when changing CyberPatrol settings or accessing blocked web pages.

The CyberPatrol HQ Toolbar interface makes use of the program's features easy and convenient and you can close the toolbar with the click of a mouse if you don't want it up on the screen. Using the HQ Toolbar, we were able to create profiles, administer settings and run reports.

6StarReviews Favorite Feature:
The HQ Toolbar really does make use of Cyber Patrol easy and the user-friendly interface will prove to be convenient for parents who aren't technologically inclined.
