Are we talking about Vista's built-in Parental Controls or some other
parental controls feature, such as the ones in Norton or McAfee security
products?

I experimented with Parental Controls, but even with a user account clamped
down tight with strict parental control settings, I could not prevent e-mail
from downloading, as long as "winmail.exe" (Windows Mail) was allowed
(checked) in the list of programs allowed. So take a look at that setting.

Be sure to enable the antivirus program, too.

Sorry I cannot help more.
