I would love to know that setting. We've had some issues with folder redirection and the like form a previous GPO enforcement. We haven't been able to completely wipe the changes on some of the IT pc's. Can you forward me the variables?

Subject: RE: Disabling sharing and group policies
There is a registry modification that can be made that configures the local
machine to not pull down group policies, effectively making it behave like a
workgroup machine in terms of policy application, but like a domain member
in terms of logon. Given the number of environments out there with people
who have admin rights on their machines, I am loath to give the exact
registry entry here.
