He had a blocked ISP account name that was under AOL's parental controls, but he found a way to get into the net without using AOL at all. I still don't know how he did it. I always thought you had to sign in using an ISP to get to the net.

ALL he had to do was open a REAL browser...not the one that came with AOH#LL.

I immediately told his father who started yelling and I put a block on his computer (don't remember what I did to put the block on). But Anthony was so smart and he bragged to me that he got around it

Only one way to truly BLOCK a computer...take off the power cord and keyboard after you've turned it off and hide those under LOCK and KEY and then keep the key around your neck.
If you can't do that, and you have Windows XP, give the child a GUEST account with LIMITS and then passcode your admin account. Also passcode THE admin account. Better yet, upgrade to Vista when it comes out and learn to use those parental controls. NO one is an admin on that except THE ADMIN. Liz
