    Members Loging On/Off

    Ok so I dont know when this happened but the Login on thing isnt the same, its where you gotta type your username and password, its not the Quick Change no more



    Now I cant get rid of NetWare or W/e it is, its not it Add/Remove programs and I searched for it and nothing -.-






    Also, is there a program where you Adjust ones account? Like where you cannot install or something? Limited account doesnt work so should I make em use 'Guest'?

    Solution: (1) Go to (Start) (2) Then go to (Control Panel) (3) Search for (Network and Internet Connections) or (Network Connections) or (Dial-up Connections) (4) Then you should see two sticking monitor icon, named (Local Area Connection). Right click on it then choose (Propertise) (5) Then when you are in the Local Area Connections Properties dialog box, click on the (Client services for Netware) and it will be highlighted, then only you'll click (uninstall) (6) And then for sure you click (YES) that's wat you wan, right!!!? (6) Wahlah, if you can follow the steps until here you are finish, Congratulation, you can proceed to change your settings to the Fast User Switching option or the Welcome Screen option.


    As to User: I kinda remember going thru this before. What exactly are you trying to do? Block options or enable? Is this Home or Pro?

    Are you logged on as Administrator when you check the Network settings?

    Here is Microsoft's official reply:

    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=315347

    And here a long thread with some other suggestions:

    _________________________________________

    As to user rights: In Pro you can always bring up the properties of files & programs and as Administrator limit other users.

    There are so many variables. When installing a program you can just install to your Admin account & then others would have no access.

    There are also limitations you can put on IE & downloading thru IE.

    What didnt work with Limited accounts? What are you try to block?

    go to start | help & support | (type in): Group Policy

    alot to read there. Here are 2 quick excerpts:

    Administering Internet ExplorerYou might need to be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group in order to perform some tasks.
    You can use Group Policy to administer Microsoft Internet Explorer on Windows computers. The areas you can administer include the browser settings, connection settings, important Internet addresses (such as favorites, links, home, and search pages), channels, security, and program associations. For more information, click Related Topics.

    Notes

    To administer Internet Explorer, in Group Policy, click User Configuration, click Windows Settings, and then click Internet Explorer Maintenance.
    Settings are stored in the Group Policy object.
    For more information, click Related Topics.
    Customizing your computer using Group PolicyWindows XP provides a number of ways to customize your computer. Using items in Control Panel, you can change the way your desktop looks, change the sounds associated with program events, and change the look and speed of your mouse pointer.

    Another way to customize your computer is by using Group Policy. In a network domain environment, administrators use Group Policy to customize and configure computers on the network. In an environment where you have one stand-alone computer or several computers joined in a workgroup, you can still use Group Policy to customize your computer.

    To open Group Policy

    Click Start, and then click Run.
    Type gpedit.msc and then click OK.

    There are instructions under Help & Support | Group Policy to do almost anything you want to do as far as restricting the way users can use the computer/s under your Administrative control.


    ________________
    To open Group Policy

    Click Start, and then click Run.
    Type gpedit.msc and then click OK.

    Most IE options in GPEDIT.MSC can be found via this path:

    Using the Group Policy Editor - Windows XP Professional
    Click Start, Run and type GPEDIT.MSC

    Navigate to this path:

    To enable the restriction for the computer

    Computer Configuration | Administrative Templates | Windows Components | Internet Explorer

    To enable the restriction for the current user profile

    User Configuration | Administrative Templates | Windows Components | Internet Explorer

    _________________________________

    Also under the profile you wish to edit go to Tools | Internet Options... | Security | Advanced

    Here you can block downloads among other things.

    __________________________________

    And you can disable the Internet Options from the toolbar via the following:
    (note this does NOT block Internet Options from the Control Panel)

    As I noted earlier, the same change can be performed using the Group Policy
    Editor:


    - Run gpedit.msc.
    - Navigate the tree to select the following node:
    Local Computer Policy
    User Configuration
    Administrative Templates
    Windows Components
    Internet Explorer
    Browser menues
    - Change the properties for the "Disable Internet Options ... menu option".
    Because this is a negatively worded setting:
    Disable = the menu is enabled.
    Enabled = the menu is disabled.
    The "Not configured" setting will erase the registry key (along with the
    data value). Without it, the default of zero (0) gets used when this
    setting is not defined (so the menu is enabled).


    Again, this *only* disables or enables the Internet Options menu in Internet
    Explorer. It does NOT prevent you from running the Internet Options applet
    in Control Panel separately and outside of Internet Explorer. To also
    disable (or reenable) the Internet Options applet in Control Panel, again
    you configure a Group Policy setting:


    Local Computer Policy
    User Configuration
    Administrative Templates
    Windows Components
    Control Panel


    and configure the "Hide specified Control Panel applets" setting.
