2 possible solutions:
 
1. HKLM\software\microsoft\windows NT\Currentversion\Winlogon\
    There is a string value called "shell" that you can change to iexplore. The system will then open IE as the only available program. Start menu and taskbar are gone. May cause unforseen consequences-test carefully.
 
2. Use IE in kiosk mode. Append a -k outside the quotes to the shortcut that starts IE. (perferably from the startup group or such) Use local system policies to rmove unwanted IE options for security. Autologon from a locked down account might also be a good idea.

Subject: IE Question

I have 5 new library computers that they only want to run IE6 on for serching there internet databases. (The machines are W2k, SP2, IE6, 933MHZ 256 MGS.. Yeah I know over kill, but thats what they wanted.)
Is there a way to make IE load as the shell, or a way to only make that the only app that can run?
 
TIA,
