Disable saving to hard drive!

NTFS permissions

there a way to only allow them to save file to a floppy
or some other form of a removable disk. This information
will be greatly appriciated. Thankyou!

One "cheap" way of doing this may be to hid the hard disk from them. Again,
you could also use NTFS permissions. For the majority of computer users
however, surely you'd want them to be able to write back to their own "my
documents" area and profile information? Also, don't forget that a lot of
programs want to use temporary files as a scratch pad; stopping users being
able to write all over your system wherever you like is good and easy to do,
but while its possible to stop them writing to the hard disk at all it needs
to be tested carefully as it can have bad results.
