    I am trying to determine if I can limit a users who is on a 'Limited Account' for WinXP. Can I do this and if so, how? I tried looking at MS web site but as you know, they can be as useful as a screen door on a submarine. Any hel;p is apprecited.

    I am trying to limit when my daughter can go online, Right now with DSL she can sign on without having any restrictions, how can I not allow her to use the net. I am looking for something other than the parental controlds that come with my DSL.
    Anything folks?

    The only way to limit would be to totally restrict the use of Internet Explorer and pretty much WinXP, due to the way IE is embedded into the OS. You could though utilize software such as Netnanny, or even go as far as the Parental Controls for you DSL, which are the only real ways to do it.

    Otherwise, you end up restricting everyone from using the computer.
