Is it possible to "lock down" Internet Explorer so a user may only visit one URL?
I think you can only control it to that extent by using the web browser control in VB6 in an Application. You could turn off the address bar, but the user could always go to the menu and turn it back on.
You could do a hack using the proxy settings and setting permissions on that setting in the registry (I think the settings save to the registry). Then write a really simple proxy server app running either locally or on the network.
Thanks for your replies but I was hoping it would be possible to restrict IE just by merging a reg file (simiular to the way you can lock-down NT)
I looked through the 2000 policies and it lets you specify "Favorites" or whatnot, but not a total lockdown. Do you have the IE administration kit? Maybe that has info on it.
