For Windows 9x/ME/XP Home (since NT/2K/XP Pro already have group
policies in place)

I found out by playing around with LiteStep and with the likes of Mark
Overmar's ChildProof, LiteStep does make a good kidsafe shell for
Windows, in fact, its more secure than most (even the $$$ ones); Since
I've been playing around with some of the features, such as disabling
the menubar, desktop icons, even windows hot keys and modifying the
popup main menu with custom applications, LiteStep can be made nearly as
secure and nearly as safe as any child proofing program out there.

It makes having to edit the registry for specific HKCU values less
likely too.

If their computer isn't locked down for the Internet they/you may
experience other problems.
