  10. Windows All Versions The screens on your left will fly past and no action is needed on your part. This dialog screen in particular says executing file. It is executing a file named PF.exe which contains highly compressed files. Parental Filter will be use approximately 30 megabytes on your computer but to download it is only 9 megabytes because the files are compressed. This screen might take a while if you have a slow computer because the files need to be uncompressed or restored.

  11. Windows 95/98/NT specific Windows 95/98/NT require additional files which are downloaded from the web. Note: if Setup finds the files named MDAC_typ.exe & JET40SP8_9xNT.exe in the same directory as ParentalFilterSetup.exe then Setup will not download but instead use those files. Press OK to download the files. There are 2 downloads one is 5.29MB & the other is 3.69MB. Once complete the files are installed & your system will be updated & ready to run Parental Filter. Windows 95 downloads one extra file DCOM95.exe 1.17MB. Continued… on next slide

  12. Windows 98/95/NT continued… What can go wrong??? MDAC_typ.exe requires Internet Explorer 4.01 sp2 or greater. You cannot proceed unless you install the version of IE required. The last dialog give the option to download Internet Explorer and a link to the IE homepage was provided previously. MDAC/Jet issues cause the following problems. The screen on your right will be a symptom of unsuccessful MDAC/Jet installations. As you can see it goes ga ga trying to do something it cannot.

  13. Options All Versions There are several options after installation that you may want to check or uncheck as you require. • Launch Parental Filter • Do want to immediately activate Parental Filter after you click finish.
