Re: Administrator ability to deny User acess to software programes?



In addition to the replies that suggest modifying NTFS permissions which is
a great idea you may want to take a look at the free Shared Computer Toolkit
from Microsoft that requires that you have SP2 installed. It uses
technologies usually not available in XP Home such as limited Group Policy
and Software Restriction Policies to lockdown a user account while not
interfering with what administrators or other users can do. --- Steve
