I am just testing Vista Business edition and want to activate/set Internet Explorer 7's Parental controls but can not find them on my system.

Has anyone had any experience ith this? I viewed the differences betwee the Vista flavors but did not find anything saying that it is not included for Business edition.

Parental Controls are located in the Control Panel in Vista - they do not only affect IE7, but also affect the rest of the OS.

I've red that too but have seen nothing on my control panel. What is the exact name of the application icon. I have no Parental Controls shortcut anywhere.

Hello eddiduce.

Your version of Windows Vista don't have this feature.

Basic, Premium, Ultimate have parental control, but not Business. Sorry.

:huh: Do you, or anyone, know of a work arround to install it for Business edition?
Does anyone know of a detailed listing of everything it does?
I found this website but it's very brief, unless that's all that's offered: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/...alcontrols.mspx
Does this program also lock the desktop?
