Preventing Internet programs from harming your computer

WebTrap protects against malicious Java and ActiveX applets. Although most Web sites are completely harmless, it is possible for someone to create a small program and set it to run, invisibly, whenever their Web page is accessed. These programs may destroy data, steal your passwords, financial data, etc.

PC-cillin's WebTrap protects you against malicious Java and ActiveX programs while allowing harmless ones to safely pass through.

To prevent Internet programs from harming your computer:

1. On the PC-cillin window, click Settings. The Settings window appears.

2. On the Settings menu, click the Quick Access link. The Quick Access screen appears.

3. Select the Enable WebTrap check box.

4. Click Apply. A message box appears notifying you that the change will not take effect until you restart your computer or log off and log on again.

5. Click OK.

6. Restart your computer or log on again to immediately enable the function.
