Spotting Bad Guys
28th Nov 2008, 08:47
Morning all,
My son (15) has a Hewlett Packard laptop which I've recently had to enact some pretty strict parental controls. (don't ask why, but he IS 15....).
Anyway, he likes to share data and apps with his friends at boarding school, and as I have now made him a standard user with me holding admin rights, he's now unable to install anything.
I want to retain control, see activity reports and so on, but do want to allow him back some of the rights to install and so on. Is there a way this can be done? Some kind of 'power user' account?
Thanks in advance
