Controlling programm installation in limited account

[Guest]

I need to create a user account for my stepson but want to control what he
can do, I understand that a limited account will let you install programmes
and webcams but I need to stop this whilst still allowing him to access the
internet and go into chat rooms. How do I go about customising an account to
stop him from installing programmes etc?

I'm thinking the best option will be to create a guest account which has
limited use but I need to put a password on it.

Can anyone help me with this? I've got a fairly good knowledge of computers
but this is over my head!

A limited account cannot install programs. It does this by preventing any
programs the user is running from changing anything in important folders.

I don't think a limited account can install new hardware either.

I have used a limited account in the past and it was still possible to
install some programmes (but not all). If it will stop hardware being
installed that is good though.

Thanks a lot
