We've used Microsoft's Windows SteadyState tool to lock down an XP desktop in "kiosk" mode. This has worked well to control what users can do and what web sites they can access through these kiosk machines.
In looking up a link for this, though, I notice that Microsoft has pulled the tool as of 31 December. They do claim that there are native Windows 7 tools for the same purpose; I haven't tried them. -Malcolm From: Eric Brouwer [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 24, 2011 10:24 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Web filter? Greetings, We're looking to deploy PCs at several locations that are to be used strictly for access to a couple of our websites. We're looking for a simple, cheap solution to block internet access to all websites, and then add in the handful of sites we'd like them to access. Any one doing ahtyhing like this? A recommendations? Thank you!
