    Off hand I don't know of a way to do directly what you want. Two things that
    may help are to use Group Policy to configure wireless settings if you have
    a Windows 2003 domain controller. The other is to use Group Policy
    restrictions to restrict a users access to various networking tasks as found
    under user configuration/administrative templates/network/network
    connections. You can test those Group Policy restrictions on a local
    computer by editing local Group Policy with gpedit.msc. --- Steve
