This software blocks Internet Explorer in such way that only selected, previously defined websites can be displayed. Is it useful for your company or for a home computer? Read through at the real use cases below.

School District
School district installed WebAllow at all computer classes in 17 schools in the area. Problem: lots of students during computer classes are not actually following the material being presented at the class. They use web browser as a chat tool and visit various unappropriate web sites. Even though student are logged on computers with a limited privileges account they have to be able to use Internet Explorer, but it is advisable to restrict the usage of the browser only to the classes related materials.

After installing WebAllow high school students cannot visit any website outside the school domain. Note that they also cannot install alternative browser since their computer accounts do not have administrative privileges.

Computer Store
The store has two computers available to the public with a home page set to the company's website. The companies website has a full catalogue of the products available for sale as OEM and as boxed hardware items. Visitors are allowed to browse anywhere. They shop around the WWW for the same item and do not purchase the product in the store.

WebAllow locked Internet Explorer to the company's online product catalogue.

School Library
The library has ten computers that have home page set to library catalogue. The main purpose is to allow students to search for the library items and check their availability via web interface. Instead, the students form lines to use the computers to browse the Internet.
