How Do I Prevent my 13 Year Old from accessing "Adult" Content?

Windows seven has a built in Parental Control Section. However the only options I see are the option to control time usage, Games and Ability to use programs on the computer.
There are no "Internet controls" that will prevent him from watching Adult material "Accidentally" or not, or sites that promote gambling etc.

Is there any downloads from microsoft that do this or do I have to go elsewhere for the solution.

If you answer Please provide a hyperlink to whatever Microsoft page or other solution. And please explain in detail what your solution provides/does etc. thanks

From an adiminstrator account you could put sites on the now allowed list for all. Unless she has your password, cannot be viewed.

Downloaded family control from windows essential but am having problem

Baarod I went to the link you suggested . It is exactly what I need . but I have one problem. When I click on the program and it ask me to sign into my windows live account(I use my hotmail account). When I go to log in a message pops up that says "This account has not yet reviewed the windows live terms of use" and just give me an option to close the message pop up.
How do I review the terms of use so I can move forward with the family safety program?

Hello Odyn,

In addition to using Family Safety along with Parental Controls on his user account, you can also use Content Advisor in Internet Explorer to help allow and block websites.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
