Pogo.com actually has a LOT more to offer than just board games. I've been a member there for a few years now. There's everything from word games, to puzzles, to action games, to "casino" type games. There's something for everyone, and it's free!
Indeed. Though I am disappointed that half the games you need the elite member status for now. But that is relatively cheap.
But as for Runescape, it fine in the way of advertisements, as long as you dont mind him being exposed to quite a bit of rude people and inhumane jokes. But, not so different from the real world sometimes? But there are far better alternatives.
I have an extensive list of great online games he can try, PM me if you want them, 99% of them are free. =)
(I'm a huge free online mmoprg fan!)
Note: MMORPG: Massive Multiplayer Online Role Play Game(s)

If that doesn't work...get him into client based games. Runescape has a client you can download btw. You can also uninstall Java after getting the Runescape client.
That should indirectly stop him from doing it, since the games he'll be into will be available from the desktop.

As he's 14 I think even if you give him a list he will venture off to other sites anyway.
A good start would be to install some security that stops spyware, Spywareblaster, Peerblock (the spywarelist), Malwarebytes anti-exploit (beta product) and Malwarebytes pro are examples that would be a good start.
You could block the IP's of game sites you do not wish him to visit, this can be done in peer block by adding your own list of blocked IP's.
Let him also have his own account on your computer with limited permissions, then he will have to ask if he wants something installed.
I use all of these products and they all have stopped things on a number of occasions.
The next and probably the best tool to make sure he does not do this is to keep an eye on him, look over his shoulder once in a while. If that does not work create a psychological effect let him visit sites and then have a fake malware infection infect the PC which takes it offline for a week or 2 there by creating in his mind the idea that he better be careful what he does or he might ruin the PC again.
This is the way I teach mine with real time lessons and he learns quick, the only thing he wont believe is fish fingers are made of fish.
Good luck with what ever you do.
I researched rune scape and found a similar game for free for you called panzar, here is the link, http://www.panzar.com/

The free-to-play games I play include games by Artix Entertainment, such as DragonFable and AdventureQuest Worlds (an MMORPG). I like their company because of their philosophy and because I've interacted with them enough to know that the developers really are nice guys. Depth of gameplay varies but I think that it's definitely enough to have fun with. The graphics are alright but the engine is not epic. The art is very cool too. A cool bunch of guys, a cool community and wacky weekly releases will definitely keep his hands full. I've spent hundreds of dollars on their games not just because it's fun but also because I love to support their studio.
Other free-to-play games worth trying include Battlefield Play4Free and possibly Ghost Recon Online. These games are from big companies hiring studios to make F2P spinoffs. By no means perfect or better than the originals, they definitely are worth several hours. I've also played Neverwinter and it's not too shabby. The mechanics are cool, the engine is nice and quality in general is very high. But don't let him buy anything from them, PWE charges ridiculous amounts for "this item" and "a bunch of currency".
Of course, in F2P games, there are certain things you'll have to watch out for in particular. For example, watch out for account traders. Account trading disgusts any honest person there are too many people trying to do it. Then, there's gold farmers. In games with free trade, watch out for gold farmers and hope that your brother has a good moral compass in him.
And then, there are games that you find on www.kongregate.com and www.armorgames.com. It's the only place I'd go to find these browser-based, mostly-Flash games. Oh, and visit www.radicalplay.com because they have some cool games too. The games on these websites are high-quality but you'll need to learn the "art of the Search". Look for highly rated games and you'll find some wonderful games to play. I would try out the Epic War series, Sonny series, Crush the Castle series, Raze series and maybe the Sinjid series just to name a few. Lots of fun to be found here.
In conclusion, I think I've listed many places your brother could go to find some good, safe, clean fun as well as some general guidelines to internet usage and gaming. I think the most important thing is to make sure he knows the rules of the game and has a moral compass inside of him that will guide hi to do the right thing instead of falling to gold farmers and stuff. Also, once he's got down the basic principles, let him explore by himself. He's 14; he'll be fine.
Oh, and I'd recommend you let him save up some money and pick up some AAA titles as well. They are really high-quality, as their name implies and often guarantee a ton of fun. For his age, I recommend the Prince of Persia series. Games like Battlefield 3 are great too, but I do hate the profanity.
Good luck!
