AOL Parental Controls for Mac can only monitor your child’s online activity when your child is signed in to AOL Desktop with his/her account. When you set up AOL Parental Controls for Mac, all applications that can be used to access the Web are blocked by default, except AOL Desktop for Mac. Limiting access to other applications that can access the Web helps ensure that your child has a safer Web experience. Examples of applications that are blocked: • Web browsers like Safari • Instant Messengers like iChat • Mail applications • Applications that allow a user to run other operating systems on Mac Allowing the use of such Web-enabled applications to your child may allow them to circumvent AOL Parental Controls for Mac.
