Restrict Windows and Web Access for Kids with KidsMenu - 1 views

Patti Porto on 18 Aug 10"My oldest son likes games and Web surfing, but we don't want to give him full access to our PC, or to the entire Internet. We've experimented with various ways to block him off, with varying success. It wasn't long ago that I found just the program for which I was looking, a customizable application launcher that serves as an alternate Windows shell. That program is KidsMenu. I should back up for a moment and explain what the "shell" is. The shell is what allows a user to interact with the operating system. For most of us, the default Windows shell is Explorer, which includes the Start Menu, desktop icons, System Tray, etc."
