View Full Version : Restricting Internet Use

I was wondering if there is anyway to restrict internet
use to certain users. I operate a (very) small business,
and the computer in the back office controls a register
in the front of the store. Just one Win XP system,
nothing fancy. A few general employees play around on
the internet when they should be working, and this needs
to stop. What can I do, if anything, to keep them off
the internet while I still can use it if need be. Any
help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Josh Burkey

how are you sharring the internet connection?
With WIN XP ICS?

if so you can disable the internet sharring on your connection, and then
when you want you can re-enable it

On your connection press right mouse button and properties, then go to
advanced and deselect

ALLOW OTHER NETWORK bla bla...INTERNET CONNECTION
