In all honesty, a kid that knows what he's doing can get around just about any program or password out there. I was one of them, I'm happy to say. Luckily I turned out successful and just fine.
Anyway, I might suggest going into Windows Firewall on your computer (assuming you run windows) and turning off the exception for Limewire. Or, delete the program and do not allow the user administrative privvys on the computer, so they cannot install programs.

Just go to Tools--Options--Filters and check the one that says Ignore Adult Content...But that other person might know this already since it should already be checked when you installed the program...Or go to your Firewall and don't allow internet access for the Program...go to Start---Control Panel--Security Center---Windows Firewall and click the Exceptions Tab...there should be another list...uncheck the one that says Limewire....Hope this was any help...

There might be a way to get a firewall installed on your computer that requires a passwords. When using a firewall, you can choose which programs are allowed to access the internet, and which programs are not allowed.
Hope this helps. Pornography is destructive.

ok to block limewire just set it's filter to block adult content and set the filter to strict on blocking out junk. I deleted limewire so I can't remember but I think you can set a password so only you can change the filter settings.

Do you have wifi? ignore approximately utility. attempt changing the hardware. it is ordinary. Take the internet chip out of the pc and purchase a plug and play wifi device (key) extremely (it does an identical element even with the undeniable fact that it is exterior extremely than inner and provides you greater administration). It comes with it is very own USB port so as which you will genuinely do away with it. That way, you come back to a determination how plenty pc time your baby has---like for homework or 15-minute digital mail stints---in spite of. whilst homework time is over, take the "key" out. There heavily isn't time for him to basically cruise the internet (like in the midst of the night when you have long previous to mattress).

On the Content tab, you will see a button for "enable."

Here, move the slider to prevent all nudity, violence, ...
click the General tab in the "Content Advisor"
