I don't know about any of that software, but I suggest that you put the computer in plain sight for the rest of the family.  That will discourage them from using the computer inappropriately while you are at home, and will make it apparent when they use the computer.  You might set aside a room strictly for computer use, and maintain a presence there too.  Also, I think Internet Explorer has a content control system.  Check the Internet Options dialog for that feature.

Download firefox. Its a fast and secure browser to use instead of internet explorer.\n\nGo to:\nhttp://www.mozilla.com/firefox/\n\nThen whenever you fill in a site password a little message box appears asking if you'd like to save the password. Everytime you go to the page afterwards the entire form is filled out for you.

Opera and netscape/firefox has an option to save all  your passwords\nIts always a good idea to have a different password for each web page you use\nYou could also use a program called roboform that will work with Firefox and Internet explorer

If you want that when someone see your webpage in IE it puts your web page in Trusted Zone it's not possible, it got to do with security, it much too dangerous to allow one to do so.

It's okay for windows, that's how it operates. Internet Explorer is none other then the default explorer in windows. If you don't trust this just open a folder, or My Computer for instance and on the adres bar enter a web page, see what happens. This is the main reason why the internet explorer cannot be removed from the system.

This is internet explorer's parental control content adviser thing.  If you don't know the password to bypass the parental control download a diffrent web browser like Mozilla Firefox and browse through their to bypass this.  You could also use a proxy.  Go to http://proxify.com/ and enter the address to also bypass the security.

To keep IE from storing away your passwords, follow these steps:\n\n1. Start Internet Explorer.\n\n2. Choose Tools --> Internet Options --> Content.\n\nIE shows you the Internet Options dialog box.\n\n3. Click AutoComplete.\n\nIE brings up the AutoComplete Settings dialog box.\n\nIn general, to save time, you want to have IE remember the Web addresses that you type. If don't like the idea of IE storing your credit card number to be used automatically when filling out forms on the Web, then uncheck the Forms box. That's a tough choice for timesavers because it also tells IE that it shouldn't store your name, address, phone number, and so on, to use on forms. You're potentially saving yourself more than simple time by playing it safe.\n\n4. In the Use AutoComplete For area, choose the settings that work best for you.\n\n5. If you want to clear out any of IE's current AutoComplete data, click the appropriate button.\n\nIf you click Clear Passwords, IE deletes all the passwords that it has stored. If you click Clear Forms, all the data IE has — including all user names and passwords, in addition to addresses, telephone numbers and the like — gets the heave-ho.\n\n6. Click OK twice.

If you want to put a password so that people can't use the Internet, then try using User Accounts.  If you have Windows XP, then this will work for you.  If not, the process is similar.  Go to Start > Control Panel > User Accounts.  There, you can add accounts.  Put a name, password, and choose what kind of account you want to create.  An Administrator account gives full access to the computer, but a Limited account restricts the user to do certain changes.  You decide.  Now, when you are done creating the account, go to Start > Log Off.  Choose Log Off or Switch Users and you will go to the Welcome Screen.  There, you have to put a password to access the account and use the computer (and therefore the Internet).  Does this help at all?

Take off rights for Internet Explorer / Firefox.  Doing anything else will deny them access to the network.

Don't use your windows firewall.  Use an internet security program firewall.
