Controlling messaging on social networks

By using Parental Control, you can view a user's messaging over social networks, as well as block messaging with specified contacts.

To configure monitoring of a user's messaging:

1. Go to the Parental Control settings window.
2. In the Parental Control settings window, select the Communication section.
3. To view messaging logs and, if necessary, block specified contacts:
   1. Select Block messaging with all contacts except allowed known contacts.
   2. Click the Known contacts link to open the Messaging Report window.
   3. View contacts with whom the user has been messaging. You can display specified contacts in the window by using one of the following methods:
      • To view logs of the user's messaging over a specific social network, in the left part of the window select the required item from the drop-down list.
      • To view contacts with whom the user has been writing most actively, in the drop-down list in the right part of the window, select By number of messages.
      • To view contacts with whom the user has been communicating on a specified day, in the drop-down list in the right part of the window, select By date of messaging.
   4. To view the user's messaging with a specified contact, click the contact in the list.

      A window with history of messaging with this contact opens.

   5. If you want to block the user's messaging with the selected contact, click the Block messaging button.
4. Flip the toggle switch in the upper part of the window to Control is enabled.

Parental Control will block exchange of messages between the user and the selected contact.
