First, to fix what your daughter has done, use a Restore Point in System
Restore to go back before she downloaded and installed the game.

I would check the system thoroughly with your anti virus software running
the latest definitions, and also take a look here for information on
malware/spyware/Trojans: www.aumha.org/secure.htm . MVP Jim Eshelman has
several very good - and free - programs to use.

You could check for safe games at http://zone.msn.com/en/root/default.htm .
There are literally tons of games on the site.
