Hi Rachel,

You can use mandatory user profile.

With mandatory user profiles, a user can modify his or her desktop, but the changes are not saved when the user logs off.

The next time the user logs on, the mandatory user profile created by the administrator is downloaded.

check out ( - it is a step by step instruction on how to create a Mandotory user profile in Windows 2000.

Hope this helps,
