Hi,That will not work because my other computer is not running IE8. It is running windows xp home edition service pak 3.I can disable on this computer I am on now because i am running IE8. I know how to disable inprivate browsing for IE8 Heck, you can't even upgrade to IE7 from windows xp home edition on my other computer which is a desktop that came with windows xp home edition installed.So my question was how do you disable or turn off inprivate browsing on WINDOWS XP HOME EDITON "not IE6, or IE7, or IE8 !!"

Hi, Give this a shot, this is in regsitry editor. Always remember to backup.- Open Regedit. press start, then run, then type "regedit" (without the quotes)- The necessary setting is: HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Privacy\EnableInPrivateBrowsing - If that key doesn't exist (They may not exist at all), you may have to create them, to do this, navigate to the last available section of the key, it may stop at HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Policies\Microsoft\ so that's where the following instructions begin- Right click on Microsoft in the left pane and choose new, then key. Type "Internet Explorer" (no quotes) as the name of the key. Then right click on the new key you created and choose new, then key and type "Privacy" (no quotes) as the name of the key. highlight the new privacy key, and then right click in the RIGHT pane, choose new, then dword value. - Type "EnableInPrivateBrowsing" (no quotes) as the name of the item. The value will default to 0 (which is what you want). now restart your computer and you should no longer be able to enable in private browsing Thanks"If you find my reply helpful please click the 'Vote As Helpful' button next to my reply"

If you want to monitor your child Activity, I suggest to use parental control or Windows Live Family Safety. These would help you a lot.
