I purchased a new PC for my daugter's. It has windows XP.
What can I do to prevent them from downloading programs
and installing them?

Thanks
 
Greetings Dad,

Simply set them up a "User" account in Start, Control Panel, User Accounts. A "User" account
won't be able to download and install software.

Also, you'll probably also want to put a password on the default (Administrator) account,
which you can do in the same window.
