I have certain programs I don't want the kids to be able
to use. How can I install them & not have them in the
kid's Progams Menu (list)?

Thanks

Hi,

Try this for me:


____________________________________________

Log in as an administrator (that is your account
probably), and right click start and left click
explore ... and browse to :
C:\Documents and Settings\account\Start Menu\Programs

Where account= "Your children's account name"

and then in "Programs" delet the programs you would not
like to have them on the Start> All Programs Display.

Right ~!

____________________________________________

Hopefully, This should resolve your issue.

Please send me a mail at douglas_b2002@hotmail.com, if
this solves your problem. This would

encourage me to find better solutions to help you & other
customers in future.


Note: This fix to follow is personal adviced by me, which
has worked successfully in the

past, on machines with similar problems as per yours, and
has nothing to be linked or

compared with Microsoft Corporation's solutions.
