Gilisoft WebLock User Guide
How do I start using GiliSoft WebLock?
- Open WebLock and decide whether your main goal is family internet balance, school/shared-PC restrictions, or office browsing control.
- Set a master password or administrator rule first so users cannot simply turn the internet policy off when they want unrestricted browsing.
- Choose whether you want a simple block list, an allow-only rule set, time scheduling, or daily quota control before applying the policy.
How do I block selected websites?
- Add distracting, harmful, or unwanted websites to the blocked-sites list. This is useful for social media, entertainment, adult content, or other browsing destinations you do not want available.
- Apply the rule and test access from the browser to make sure the intended sites are blocked while normal Windows use remains unaffected.
How do I allow only approved websites?
- Use the website allow list when you want to keep only approved learning, communication, or work services available and block everything else.
- This setup is especially useful for study-only PCs, front-desk systems, office machines, classroom computers, or child-focused browsing environments.
How do I set internet schedules?
- Create time windows for when internet access should be available and when it should be shut off, such as after bedtime, during lessons, or outside work hours.
- Use scheduled control when you want the policy to work automatically instead of depending on someone to manually disable the internet every day.
How do I limit daily internet time?
- Set a daily quota or time allowance so the internet remains available only for the number of minutes or hours you decide.
- This is useful when a full-day block is too strict but you still want to reduce overuse, keep routines healthier, or keep browsing closer to work needs.
How do I use WebLock for family and office policies?
- For families, combine site blocking, safe-site allow lists, and time quotas so children can still reach school and communication services while harmful or addictive content stays restricted.
- For offices, keep approved work platforms available while limiting entertainment, streaming, gaming, and other non-work browsing that reduces focus.
