Blocking installs
You can use the policy editor to only allow certain programs to be run and
do not add setup.exe to the list of acceptable programs. It is not a great way to do it and a savvy user will probably be able to defeat the policy. To install System Policy Editor (poledit.exe), go to Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, click the Windows Setup tab and click Have Disk. In the Install From box, click Browse and browse to the Tools\Reskit\Netadmin\Poledit folder on the W98 CD. Highlight poledit.inf and click OK twice. In the Have Disk screen, check the System Policy Editor box and click Install. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "jtvich" wrote in message ...
