The wonderful thing about Microsoft Anti-Spyware is that it will tell you the files names that you need to remove for About:Blank. Once you have those the removal process isn't too bad.

Why will this be a problem if she only gives the kids limited access? I think that you read Susan's comment wrong. She is only giving the mother Administrative rights, not the kids.
