Limited User Account Setup

$

Hello,
This is on a ASUS laptop, WIN7.
I'd like to have a Limited User Account for facing the internet on my son's laptop. I have this on my old Dell, which is running XP SP3.
His ASUS has Express Gate which I understand is based on Linux and fairly safe, but has limited functionality, and I'd rather see him using a Limited User account.
The following link shows how to do it, and I'm wondering if this is the way to go.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l...(v=ws.10).aspx
When I go to User Accounts I see two accounts; one called "Alex" - administrator, the other Guest - "off".
Is the Alex account the out of the box admin account that my son named, which had administrator rights?
Should the system's admin account show up here as well?
I was expecting to see the System Admin account here as well.
I'd like to follow the info in the above link, but got stuck on what I saw in User Accounts
Any help will be appreciated.
