Pierre,

I'm surprise you are expecting a Cisco PIX to support such features !!!
Regardless of how the PIX filter or any intermedia device filter, there is
no way to control the permission like what you are looking for. Even the
solution suggested by Andy won't work... If you understand basic OS, you
will know why this is so... if you don't , what are you doing administrating
a W2K Server ?

The ONLY way you can implement such a feature is to make use of Thin Clients
and Citrix. Even then, if the user is determine enuff, he/she can probably
take a camera and take a "screen shot"...

Since the solution is not relevant to the Cisco Platform and also the CCxx
certifications, I shall not go off-topic further....
