    Restrict program access and startup for second user?


    Is there any easy way to restrict program access and startup for second user?

    I need to share my pc for a short time, and would want to restrict what programs show in startmenu and start at boot. Tried a new local account and new family member, but dont see any program restriction controls.

    Was looking also for some software that maybe can control this?

    :)
