Is there a wireless router out there that could have the admin computer control the software and select parental controls, etc. and have it control the content of pc or apple laptops in my home without installing software on those computers?

For instance, a friend of my child comes over with a laptop and spends the night. Could the wireless content be filtered on his computer as well as my familys?
 
Most of the systems I have played with the parental controls were local or a the server.
 
Try using http://www.opendns.com. You have to create a free account and alter some router settings, but you can choose many different filtering criteria that will affect any computer connecting to your router.
