I just purchased a new Media Center PC running MCE 2005. Circuit City installed Norton Internet Security program.
Currently, it says that Supervisor is logged on/Parental Control is OFF. I
am currently the only user, but I would like to setup at least 2 other
users. I have setup a Passport, but I have not set a password for my user
account. I am confused on whether I need to setup the password in Norton
Security or in Windows User Accounts where I setup my passport account? I
understand that I can have Norton control user accounts or Windows control
user account. Which one am I likely to have the least problems with? If I
select Windows to manage the user accounts, do I setup my user accounts with
passwords before I run Norton to assign account types to user accounts?
There does not seem to be a forum for Norton Internet Security that I can
post too?
Since this is a very new PC, I want to make sure I do not do anything wrong.
I have read the info on how to setup Norton Security, but I am still
confused on where I log on and off (Norton has a log on/off option) and
where I setup the accounts first. Since I have not setup what account
manager I am going to use I am not sure that Norton is configured properly.
