any plan to disable the "extra 60 +60 sec" features?

Are the any plans to disable the log in for extra 60+60 second in the near future?

Just deciding if I want to completely uninstall Norton Family Online or not!

Thanks.

Hi afruscione,

 

Thanks for the post and I also reread the previous posts you sent in another thread http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Online-Family/login-allowed-during-curfew-time-MAJOR-FLAW/m-p/...

 

Have you tried to add a password for the child’s Windows account, so when the child logs back onto the PC diligently each time, it would create more work for the child to do it every few seconds. 

 

I'll pass your concern and suggestion to the team.

 

 

Thanks,

Katie

Apologies for re-opening this thread, but I consider this to be one of the single most useful features a parental control should have.

 

In Windows Live safety, if access is tried during curfew hours, the child is not even given the chance to login. With NOF, my daughter just logs on and off and on and off, until she manages to crash NOF (yep, it does happen regularly).

 

The best thing would be a configuration option like "when time expires totally block access to child's account". Please consider this feature request.

 

EDIT: Although NOF provides more features compared to Windows Live Safety, I do consider returning to the latter due to this: I must be able to definitely enforce the time use policy and due to this 60+60" feature, I just can't do it...
