can't you just block running any file not owned by Administrator and a
few other trusted users?

Yes, through ACLs on registry keys like "Software". IF the users
have only read only access on some of them installation packages won't
work. However, remember that a lot of software don't need a "formal"
installation process. You can play with the ACLs on the Program Files
folder too, but I believe that it might break some apps.

Hi, all
The users are not local administrators. We configure
group policy to prevent user installs but it seems
that it blocks only .msi packages. Users still can
install applications through ex. setup.exe...Can we
really block users from installing applications
through Group policy?
Any idea or thoughts on this?
Plus, if we need to block users from saving .mp3 file
on their computers, can we do it through group policy?
we are on windows2000 and XP environment.
Thanks always,
Chang
