sites he looks at are game cheat sites but most of those have banners
and pop ups. I've blocked them all pretty much but just want to make
sure.
Thanks for the advice on Trillian. He is wanting to use MSN messenger to
talk with his classmates while online. I've not been wanting to install
it becuase I don't want it on my LAN but I can live with Trillian, I've
used it before.

When he is online, sit next to him and talk to him. And if he is curious
about certain types of websites, visit a few together and tell him a
thing or two.
But if you are interested in the software / hardware / monitring side,
the best advice would be to make sure IE, Outlook and MSN can not be
used by him. Let him use alternatives such as Firebird, Thunderbird and
Trillian. With all their cookie and popup blocking features you will
have significantly less logfiles to analyze.
