I have tried to establish the parental controls as said above. I have decided to block all websites except a few like foxnews.com . However whenever I go to Foxnews.com it allows me to see the home page but doesn’t allow me to brows freely through the foxnews website. Same thing happens for every site I put on the approved list. I can get to the home page but nowhere else. How do I solve this problem?

i think it would be great also if when you tried the website and it was blocked for it to just look like it wasn’t working so the kids wouldn’t know it was blocked by their parents.

Great detailed how-to. In any case, I've thought of a use for the whole Parental Control feature - as your productivity watchdog. Just create a user account that you'd use for work. Set all the parameters (block websites, assign time constraints, and even limit program access) so that you'd have a user account that helps you focus on work.

Wow, I’ve had Vista for a few months now and wasn’t aware of these safety features for kids. With all the dangers on the internet these days I find safety features like this to be very important for parents to use. You can never be too careful. I know NetSmartz411.org is a good website that teaches parents ways to keep their kids safer online and helps them monitor their kids. Great post and thanks for the info!
