You can use group policy to prevent redirecting to C: and use of the
taskbar.

You can also use it to specify logon and logoff scripts that could
disable a USB keyboard for example at logon, and then enable it again at
logoff. This policy could be set to only apply to your restricted users.

The OP never really said anything about it being a kiosk setup-- I got
from 
the "when a user logs into my machine, do this" kind of thing, meaning
he 
wanted special behavior for a user or users, but not "him."  Don't
know...

My question is, why even attach a keyboard at all? Disable it in the 
BIOS and don't have it at all if this is supposed to be a mouse-only 
kiosk. If you need to troubleshoot it, remote in.

I guess my main question is, how do you expect to re-enable the 
keyboard so that the next user can log on?

Hello,

i need to hardening My windows 2000 desktop.

When a user log on to my machine, start IE with a particular url 
and the user can' t :
1: Use the keyboard
2: use taskbar
3: Redirect the browser on C:\

Is it possible ?

I read some where that is possible with the registry command, but 
i want to know if there is a white paper.

Thanks very much
