Computer Security Software

mrudella · Jul 19, 2004

I have a quick question. I have two computers in my business. I would like the public to come in and use the computers while they eat. I need some sort of software that will allow me to lock out everything but Internet Explorer. I found some software called Fortres 101, but I really don't want to pay $60. I also tried to accomplish this through Group Policies on the local machine, but the policies affect both the limited and Administrator accounts in Windows XP. Is there any free software that will allow me to do this, or can I get the Group Policies to only affect the limited accounts? If so, how?

Quite honestly, $60 to secure a PC is very worthwhile.

mrudella, are you going to let them use it for free or are you going to charge them? Beware food (especially drinks) don't mix well with keyboards. Milk is definitely a problem, sticking keys. Other stuff gets them real sticky, like French Fries. I have never seen an Internet café that serves/allows food. Bazza

PS: there are special sealed membrane type keyboards but I have never used them.
