Anyway to password protect IE?

[amdskip]

Need to keep kids off of it on a friends computer. The kids of have their own xp limited account. I'm thinking the only way is something like net nanny, etc.

Norton Internet Security can do that, I believe. Or have mom take the cable/DSL modem's power brick to work with her every day? :evil: Or... or... show her how to do a Run As on Control Panel > System to elevate to Admin level and disable the NIC in Device Manager? Slightly clumsy, but if they have broadband, then there ya go. A Limited-class user wouldn't be able to re-enable the NIC.

Or if she has a router, you could set up a port-blocking rule that blocks ports 1-65535, and she can just log into the router to turn the rule on and off. Again slightly clumsy, but unless the kids are creative enough to hard-reset the router or take it out completely, it would work to keep the sprouts off the pr0n sites until Mom gets home...

Norton internet security, just block traffic and password protect

I have a McCaffe internet suite, There are several features which might be useful to you. One can block running exe's for a particular user. Allow only certain websites to be viewed and viceversa. Set accessible timeperiod for internet.
