Hi, It sounds like you are using some version of Windows... There are a plethora of registry keys that you can use to lock down the desktop, internet settings, and even the specific applications you do not wish the users to use. You can do this on a per-user basis, therefore you could use one account as an administrative account, with full rights, and another account for the "player" accounts, with only rights to use what you wish them to. I suggest you peruse www.microsoft.com. One good place to start in the registry is: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
