Locking users into Internet Explorer

[fluiduk]

Hi All

We have 2 laptops at work that are used solely to demo wanadoo (I work in an orange shop). Problem is that the guest account has access to pretty much everything. Customers should only be able to access internet explorer.

Is there anyway to lock users into internet explorer and reqiure a password to get out, some kind of kiosk software I am guessing. It needs to be a freeware solution if possible.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Aaron

you can run internet explorer in kiosk mode by starting it with iexplore -k, you can get out of it with alt+f4 though.

Sounds like you need Group Policy.

Ok cool

I think a combination of kisok mode and hiding all the start menu and task bar icons will have to do for now

Thanks
