Works fine thanks;
But why didn't they just put another 'clear'-button next to the 'create report'-button on top of the activity report ??!
Greetings

Hi,
gone into the event viewer as shown above but can't find the entry ParentalControls. I am logged on as the administrator. Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

This is a great help, but I struggled with the a lot in the past day. Now I am wondering if other people out there will even ever find this out. I think it is almost a main feature of windows that parents should know about. Who wants any websites staying in their activity reports for days or months.
