Resticting a users web access

Hello all, I am running XP Home edition and would like to know if I can restrict internet access to the guest users account so they can only see a few sites of my choice. Not a huge fan of the content advisor! Thanks...

Not quite sure what you mean but you will need to use some sort of third party firewall or filter (e.g. Norton) which allows you to configure multiple accounts and restict what accounts have access to what.

The content restrictor in Internet Explorer (from TOOLS > Content) only allows one setting for the whole computer as you probably noticed, so it's tough luck really.

Here is a free program that will do what you ask. I just downloaded it and tried it myself. It was very effective and did not let me access any restricted sites. http://www.tucows.com/preview/320513.html
