Setting Up a Home XP Computer for Minimal Access
I'm setting up a computer for use in a pub. I would like
to set it up so it is only available for internet access. In other words, so that no other programs can be used, nothing can be downloaded from the net and and the settings in IE cannot be changed. Is this possible? Can anyone point me in the right direction? TIA, Joe
