Open Internet Options advanced tab and set permissions for
some operations, such as install on demand.
Also on the security tab, advanced, set activeX controls to
disable, etc. Do this with care because you may not be able
to get into Windows update.
You can put microsoft.com in a trusted site and surf in
restricted.
Lots to do... so little time.
