blocking specific users


Recommended Posts

lets say i have a user on my xp machine, lets call him mark. well, mark abuses his right to the internet and wastes my time and everyone elses, what i would like to find out is if theres a way to only block him from getting on the internet. he also spends all his time playing internet games, quite unproductive. if anyone knows of a way, please tell me.

ps. the faster the better

disable "mark" having access 2 the internet connection :rolleyes: in folder options, disable "Use Simple File Sharing" then right click your internet connection in network connections and dont share it with him

ive never done this, but it seems logical enough 2 work :D lol

good luck :)

Fire up the MMC console and select Local Computer Policy

Work your way down to Computer Configuration and then Security Settings.

Now select Software Restriction Policies.

Select Security Levels.

You now have two choices...

Disallowed where Software will not run, regardless of the access rights of the user.

Unrestricted where Software access rights are determined by the access rights of the user. (This is the default state)

Lock your user down from here... you can turn off a program or go so far as to turn off different versions of the same program so your user can't run updated versions...
