Softpedia Editor's Review for Internet Access Controller
|
A program for controlling, blocking and restricting Internet and network access.
Written by Bogdan Popa on May 11th, 2012
Internet Access Controller is a full-featured Windows software solution designed to help you block or restrict access to specific websites or applications that require an Internet connection.
The program lets you define rules for each account on your Windows workstation, but administrator privileges are needed for this particular feature.
Password protection is also available to make sure nobody else manages to access the application and change the rules, while the application places an icon in the Windows System Tray to help you quickly open the configuration screen.
Internet Access Controller comprises an eye-appealing GUI, with a modern layout and a straightforward approach for easy configuration.
You can define the allowed websites, programs, services and IP addresses, but also define the blocked websites and set up a time management schedule to allow Internet access between certain hours.
Internet Access Controller can be safely used by beginners and those more experienced alike, as in most cases configuration comes down to inputting the website, the IP address, the service or the program to block or allow. A help manual is however available, just to make sure users figure out how to take the most out of each feature.
Although it’s supposed to run all the time, Internet Access Controller runs on low resources regardless of the Windows version installed on your system. An administrator account is needed to set up rules for each Windows user.
All things considered, Internet Access Controller is clearly an effective product and the great amount of features mixed with the intuitive interface makes it the kind of app aimed at both beginners and more experienced users.
