This is another installment in using the Parental Controls feature in Vista.  I figured this week I would cover these controls and other utilities we can use to help protect the kids.

Start>>Control Panel>> and click on Set up parental controls for any user. You will then be greeted with the screen to choose the user you want to control.

You will then be greeted with the screen to select the user you want to control.

Once choosing the account again you will want to confirm Parental Controls are activated. This time under Window Settings we want to click on “Allow and block specific programs”.

Next just click on the selection for you to allow what programs to be used.

Now wait a bit while Vista scans and comes up with a list of programs.  When the list is generated you can scroll through and check and block what you do or don’t want your child using.  Checking the program means the child CAN use it.  Leaving it blank means they CAN NOT use it.

Once you are finished, click on OK two times to go back to the desktop. Now set up it! I actually like how simple parental control setting. Currently, once yourchild is not logged in your profile, if they try to access the programmed edge, they will get a pop-up note.

Here is some video about it…
