Attention Windows users: Baby Shield requires Java. If you don't already have Java you can download it from Sun at http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp.

Attention Apple Mighty Mouse users: There is a bug in Apple code that prevents stopping the Mighty Mouse's button showing the Application Switcher. This can allow your baby to accidentally change to another application. To avoid this situation, open the Keyboard & Mouse section of your System Preferences and choose another action for your Mighty Mouse's button.
