hmmm....hopefully LOTR will correct any misinformation I might give here (I'm a little bit rusty on LW specifics)...

you should be able to place the LW information into your My Documents folder, then disable sharing of that folder so that when your son is logged on using his account (as LOTR notes, you can create a user account for him to log on to that is not an admin account) he is unable to access that folder in any way directly and that will protect the preferences file as being read only once you set it that way...hiding files is a pretty easy thing to workaround by simply accessing the folder properties and such (which I guess might be protected via a user account, dunno actually)...
