Blocking suspicious and prohibited websites (F-Secure Windows)

Sometimes you may browse to a website that contains suspicious, infringing, or prohibited content. For example, the website may be a fake, known spam site, contain potentially unwanted programs, or is illegal no matter where you are located.

You can use Browsing Protection to avoid unintentionally accessing these websites.

2. On the main view, select Secure Browsing & Banking.
3. On the Secure Browsing & Banking view, select Settings.
4. Select Edit settings.

   Note: You need administrative rights to change the settings.

5. Make sure that Browsing Protection is turned on.
6. If you want to block websites that are rated as suspicious in addition to ones that are considered harmful, select Block suspicious websites.
7. If you want to block websites that contain prohibited content, select Block prohibited websites.
8. If your browser is open, restart your browser to apply the changed settings.
