K9 Filtering is the additional filtering installed on select Student laptops. On laptops where administrators have requested it installed, they are in charge of controlling the level of filtering.
The password for the Student in situations like that will be set to the father's default Whipplehill password. The passwords can be found in the Student password database. https://filemaker.saes.org/fmi/webd/#Student%20Passwords
To access K9 Web Protection, it's in the Applications folder in the folder "K9 Web Protection". In that folder is the icon "Configure K9 Web Protection".
Once "Configure K9 Web Protection" is open, it will open a web browser.
Click "Setup" and enter the password that you found above.
The first section is "Web Categories to Block". This is where one configures K9 Web Protection. To turn off K9 for a temporary time, switch the level of filtering to Monitor. This will then not block anything but will monitor use.
