I have set up a user account for my son, and have a kids progrmme called
Easybits Magic Desktop pre-installed on my PC that I want to start up
automatically when he logs in, but not when I do. If it's in the startup
folder on the start menu, I get it too! I read a post recently on how to sort
this kind of thing out and can't find it again!

As an after thought, does Microsoft have comparable software for kids, where
everything is locked down, with a simplified internet browser?
