I want to know if it is possible to set up specific user accounts that allow the user to have access to certain programs - for example - can I set up an account for my child that will allow them access to the games we have on the COMPUTER but not allow them to get to the INTERNET? Way back when, it was easy to not allow access as you had to have a password to connect to the internet but now with cable/DSL you are always connected.

Thank you for your help!!What Os are you running? XP home? XP pro?

lol I know you can turn it off because i just spent the last half an hour trying to turn mine back on

I went to network connection in my control panel to see if there were anything you could do i'm not sure what i did but i wouldn't recommend it

you can USUALLY configure this within the browser. Which browser do you use?Some games require internet, and TURNING it on can sometimes be a lengthy process if you don't know exactly what you're doing, so a browser-side change WOULD be best. I have Windows Home Edition.
