Can I create a limited functionality kids desktop?
Wednesday, October 20, 2004 by airjrdn | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I'm wanting to setup a desktop for my 2.5yr old to use but not allow her to accidentally get into the control panel or my computer, etc.
Is it possible to setup a desktop using DesktopX so that the only things on her desktop are icons I've specifically setup for her? For instance, can I totally stop her from clicking on the start button, etc.?

Hey there. 
Will do, thanks for the info. I purchased the $50 stardock package a while back but don't even have it installed right now. I may have to install it just for this functionality.

Also, that machine isn't on the internet (just yet). Is it possible for me to download everything, burn it to a CD, then take it to that machine for the install, or do I have to use stardock central?
