Are the users also local administrators?? If they are then there is not
really anything you can do about it other than look for ways to allow them
to function without being a local administrator that may be easier than one
thinks. I can't speak of why Dell works that way but you may want to contact
them about the F2 issue.

We have a bunch of laptops that students can access. Unfortunately
windows
setup wireless in such a way that if one user sets up a wireless network,
another user can delete it. Also, one user can turn off the wireless card
and it stays off until someone else turns it on (w/o wireless noone else
can
logon though).
So, there are a few things I'd like to do but have been unable to track
down. First I'd like to secure the wireless settings so that users cannot
make any changes to the setup. I don't even want them to be able to add a
network and definitely not delete one.
Also, we have Dell D505s. On all Dells, you can hit Fn F2 at any point
once
the OS loads to turn of the wireless card. Even with noone logged in. I
also have not found a way to disable this key combination.
Any help with either of these would be fantastic.
