How do I lockout programs?

by fastvan67 . Updated 19 years ago

I want to lock my computer from people trying to install programs. My Son (11) is always downloading programs onto my computer. He never asks if this is ok. He downloads and installs things that put spyware and such on my system. I don’t mind him using my computer to download, I just don’t want him to be able to install anything without my permission. Is there a way to fix this?
Also, how do I make my explorer “Kid safe”? Blocking out many websites so he can’t view them. I found a version of Linux called “Kid Safe”, but I don’t want to run Linux… Yet.

Thanks,
Don
