Family Internet Companion shows parents and children exactly how the Internet can improve their lives. Learn how the Internet can help you plan vacations, investigate career options, do schoolwork, explore new interests and hobbies, and even meet new people. Learn how to get connected, if you aren't already. Explore family-friendly Web sites you can connect to directly, using the Netscape Navigator browser software on the accompanying CD-ROM. Finally, use the SurfWatch software included on the CD-ROM to protect your children from inappropriate material on the Web.

• What the Net can do for families--including entertainment, health, financial planning, careers, travel, news, sports and education.
• CD-ROM contains Netscape Navigator 2.0 for Macintosh and Windows, 10-days free access to the Internet, CyberPatrol access control software, and multimedia authoring software.
  
• For Kids Only section on E-mail, surfing the Web, and more.
• Friendly, light on jargon, with plenty of graphics, screen shots, and even cartoons.
