Default Where's How To Set Up User Accounts Manual?

I want to set up a new user account and to dictate which
programs will be accessible, which background programs
will operate, and which computer services will be
accessible on that account. Yet, no matter what I type
into the Start MenuHelp and Support system does it tell
me anything other than how to use the wizard to set up
the actual account and passwords and logon issues.
What's the point of offering my kid a computer account
when I can't learn how to limit his access to various
program and running processes? How can I create an
account that I'll use strictly for Internet browsing that
provides more computer security by limiting system access
while on that account? How can I set up an account that
keeps only a minimal amount of background applications
running so that more system resources are then allocated
for system resource intensive applications? You see what
I mean? I can't find a manual or other explanation for
this and this was one of the big pluses that Bill bragged
to the media about during XP's development. Where is
it? Why do I have to look over a hundred documents in
the Knowledge Base to put together the information I
need? Anyone who knows exactly where Microsoft hides
this information, please let me know. Thanks.
