Different programs for seperate users ?

I have recently set up two seperate user accounts - An Administrator account
and a seperate user account for use by the Kids.
I would like to know if / how I can configure the accounts to have seperate
programs on them.
For instance I recently downloaded msn messenger while logged into the Admin
account but it also appears to be available on the other users account.
I would like to configure the accounts so this program and others are only
available on the Admin account and possibly have games programs etc on the
kids account that are not on the Administrator account.
It was previously suggested that if I right clicked on the Start / All users
tab while in the Admin account I could delete programs (or access to them) by
editing.
However I cannot see how to do this as I am unable to see the programs
listed seperately for both accounts.
I would therefore appreciate any help or suggestions on how to configure the
PC so that the different users have different programs on their accounts.
