Default xp to boot directly to browser

I have a thin client running embedded xp and was wondering
how I could edit the registry for this machine to only
bootup to ie6 (default browser) I don't want any other
desktop functions. I want to lock the system down so that
it can only be used to get to the internet. Also to have
ie boot directly to a specific URL that can't be changed
by anyone using it. Can anyone help me with this registry
edit? thanks for all replies.

Hi,

there is a feature in IE called Kiosk mode and it
launches the explorer in full screen and nothing else can
be accessed from teh computer. Read more about this in
www.microsoft.com/ie
