My freind and I are both trieng to make the most secure PC's possable, while still beign usefull. I have recently be expermentign with the glorious thing of the "Group Policy Editor". It apears that you can add scripts that run during shutdown. Is there a way to have it delete recent documents, or to just not record recent documetns at all.

In GPE go to this submenu:

User Configuration\Administrative Templates\

Start Menu and Taskbar:

Create a new value:

Do not keep history of recently opened documents

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\
Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
NoRecentDocsHistory
REG_DWORD: 1

Remember that this is a per-user setting!

thanks

Some of the settings aren't available in GPEDIT.MSC (Group Policy Editor) on a workstation (they are only available as domain level group policy items). Some of the things that are domain-level group policy items can be done in the registry or manually in the NTFS/Registry permissions though. Just make sure you do some research before applying some of the settings (the guide has notes as to what can mess things up).
