Active Desktop won't "lock"?

So, I have a PC using Active Desktop. (XP -SP2)
I have Group Policy set to lock it, via the settings that 'prevent changes', etc.
What is wrong, is that on the PC, the user can drag a very small top bar anywhere on the screen, thus messing up the thing.
The bar moves the whole active desktop, and it appears to have a duplicate A/Desktop behind that one!?

Anyone know why I cannot prevent users from touching ANYTHING on the A/Desktop?
And, why I seem to have two A/desktops?

Thanks,
Rich
