asked on 

Severely restricting a user account

Hi

I have decided to let my son use the computer. Windows 7 Ultimate x64.

I have created him a separate account, but essentially the ONLY thing he should be able to do is access the internet and log off/on.

I also want to restrict him to only 1 website for now.

I don't want him to have access to any programs at all in the Start Menu.

I tried secpol.msc but it just says

"MMC could not create the snap-in"
MMC could not create snap-in. The snap-in might not have been installed correctly.
