Internet Explorer-How can I set content advisor on certain accounts but not others? I have 3 user accounts for Internet Explorer. One of them, used by a minor, is a limited account. I have blocked certain pages I don't want him visiting thru Content Advisor, which I have set a password for. This works great for the limited account, but it also affects my full access "computer administrator" account by putting the same restrictions on my account. I know I can override the blocked pages by putting in my password, but I'd rather not if I don't have to. But if I set content advisor for one account, it is enabled for all the accounts, no matter what type it is. How can I set content advisor on one account only?

How do I stop a potential virus that causes Internet Explorer to open up pop up spam and spy bot sites?

I currently use Firefox and am happy with it, if getting rid of Internet Explorer fixes the problem I would gladly do it. Please help!
