So I will be moving into a home that has 2 teenagers. I don't mind if they use my computer but I want to be a ble to turn off any kind of downloading and auto-downloads (from bad websites or opening emails) and so they can't download stuff like Limewire or Kazaa. I know I can just block these sites, but HOW? I have made an account with "standard user" abilities. I have at the moment AVG anti virus but have been too lazy to install Avast (my #1 trusted AV for the past 5 years) but I will be doing that before we move.

Any help would be appreciated.
