The only one I found (but didn't try) was one of the registry tweaks. It claimed to work, but not perfectly - something about some USB storage devices not advertising themselves as 'USBStorage' devices - maybe U3 devices? - anyway, it sounded like it was one of t hose things that might give someone a false sense of security. I don't know enough about the innards to know one way or another... but this method referenced in this thread sounds more promising. I plan on experimenting with it - although, like I said, I wouldn't really kjnow how to thorooughly test it, beyond just buying a few different types of USB storage devices and trying it out... -- Best regards, Charles -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
