Dashboard

The Online Protection Dashboard is your starting point for viewing and controlling your suite of security tools, which includes Anti-Spy, Anti-Virus, Pop-Up Blocker, Parental Controls, and Mail Protection.

When you install SBC Yahoo! Online Protection, an icon appears in your system tray, on your desktop, and in the SBC Yahoo! Browser, giving you convenient access to the Dashboard.

When everything is running smoothly, you'll see a green checkmark next to the protection feature. A gray slash mark indicates a component that's available but not active, such as when Parental Controls is installed but deactivated on your computer; a yellow exclamation mark alerts you when you need to take action.

The Online Protection Dashboard also features an alert area at the top of the window where you will periodically be notified of timely and important updates regarding the security of your computer.
