Hi all, I posted this in the desktop forum but I think it might be more of a sys admin question.

Is there a way to query local event logs for certain Events and collect them? I've enabled some software restriction policies on our XP stations and I'd like to find out when the policy is blocking exe's but the events are logged locally. As we have about 500 desktops it's not easy to get around them all.Can this be done with WMI scripts?

These are Windows XP SP2/3 boxes.

Thanks.
