Hi Everyone, I am trying to figure out a problem and any help would be appreciated. I am a Network Admin of for a local library system with 20 branches. We have a total of about 700 Internet machines. Most public machine run NT 4 w/ a custom IE 5.5 ... I am starting to work on a custom IE 6 for our public machines and I am trying to figure out a way to stop people for downloading ALL software. I know in IEAK I can stop downloads but there is those annoying ad ware programs like Gain, Gator, Bonzi Buddy, Date Manager, etc... And the public are finding ways to install these wonderful programs and use them. Now when the next person comes to use the machine they get a dozen popup ads and they get so frustrated they reboot the machine. These programs are causing a big mess. Any help would be appreciated...
