There are multiple locations where you may be asked for a password in order to access your Intego Account, log into your Intego software, or install updates for your Intego software.
This article will help you to determine what information is required and how to reset the password, if needed.
NetUpdate
Intego Privacy Protection VPN
Intego Account Portal
NetUpdate
If you need to check for and install updates to your Intego software via NetUpdate, you may be prompted to enter a password. This password would be the Mac's Admin or Login password. This is the same password you use to login to your computer and install software. While the Administrator/Login password can be the same as the Apple ID password, in some cases it is not.
When opening NetUpdate, you may see a password prompt like the one shown below to grant permission for the updates to install.

Please note that you will only enter the Intego Privacy Protection username and password to login to the service after the installation process has been completed.
When you are prompted for a password during the installation process, please use your Mac's admin password. This is the same password you use to login to your computer.
