    Impossible, unless you give the user read only rights. If you can write to the hard disk something (maybe not everything) can be installed.

    if it is your computer, then you can just not open setup files. then you won't be installing any programs
    Remember, if someone's post was not helpful, you can always rate their post negatively .

    Except a setup file can be any name. That would require that he never open any executable file.
