Overview
CyberPatrol Parental Controls is a software program developed by CyberPatrol. The most common release is 7.7.3.27, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version.

Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The setup package generally installs about 18 files and is usually about 10.22 MB (10,715,568 bytes). The installed file Updater.dll is the auto-update component of the program which is designed to check for software updates and notify and apply them when new versions are discovered.
