Restricting access to certain users.

I setup a computer in my moms dental office with software and all..

I need to figure out how to restrict access to certain options.

Its Windows XP Pro

I have the following Accounts
Administrator
Ritesh (thats my account)
Office - Account for moms assistant to Use


Ritesh is an Administrator.
Office is Limited.

I tried going to GPEDIT.MSC and disabling options, but it disabled it for the administrator as well. That was not part of the plan. im lucky i was able to get back into GPEDIT! i forgot to disable the command prompt!

Basically i want the start menu to pop up with only the following
Shut Down
Microsoft Office > Word, Excel
Microsoft Outlook
EasyDental

I want to place these links on the desktop as well along with IE and thats it. I want to disable ALL options in IE! NO Locationbar just back forward refresh!

how can i create a filter to allow only certain sites.

As for other accounts i want things to remain as normal. I need these changes just on office.

But the Office Account has to be able to create a backup of the data onto a cd.


what am i doing wrong in GPEdit?

Heh looks like youa re afraid of the office assistant looking at porn!

most of your questions lie in registry hacks. I have a list on paper that I keep in my Bag when I do service calls.

Here are a few god tutes on killing some of those options...
