Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>security_admin (more info?)

Hi,

I'm building an XP Pro image and have pretty much got everything locked down
apart from one thing. I cannot find a way of preventing users double clicking
the program groups in the startmenu and opening an explorer window. Is there
a way of preventing this with a group policy? This image will be used by
night shift people who seem to get really bored and will find any loopholes
on a system.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

TF.

Are you using AD, or is this a standalone system?


You might look at the Shared Computer Toolkit from Microsoft....or Doug
Knox's Security Console.
