Default networkcard activate/deactivate group policies


hi,

i'd like to know if there is any possibility to allow a normal user to
activate and deactivate his networkcard ...
... my problem is the following ...

... in my router (avm fritzbox) i configured the online-times for a
computer. furthermore i installed microsoft family safety ... with a
normal adminaccount he can just remove this program, so i decided to
change his account to a normal user account so that he cannot remove the
tool.

... usually he deactivate his network card so he does not waste his
online time when he is not using it. Now is not able to do this anymore
... can i change his policies especially for this setting? or can i
leave his adminaccount and change the policy that cannot remove this
tool?

EDIT:
the OS is Vista Business
alternative Vista Home Premium

does Business have *secpol*.*msc ? and is there an option for that?*
*i guess home versions doesn't have that like in xp home*

Default networkcard activate/deactivate group policies

Hi
Drag a link to the Desktop from the Local Area connection Icon in the
Control Panel/Network connection.
Right click on the Icon and choose disable and be done with in 5 sec.
Right click again and choose Enable when needed later.
