How do you disable or gray out the address bar so that no
users will be able to access it?
 
Hi John,

Here is some information that should work for you:

1. Open IE, set the address bar to hidden-- and then export the following
key to a
..REG file called NoBar.reg
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\WebBrowser

2. Add the following keys to the registry:
a. HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\
Add New DWord value
NoToolBarCustomize = 1
b. HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\
Add New DWord value
NoBandCustomize = 1

Or Set the policies:
In Group Policy, go to User Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows
Components, Internet Explorer, Toolbars:
a. Enable - Disable customizing browser toolbars
b. Enable - Disable customizing browser toolbar buttons

3. Add the .reg file to a login script with the /s (silent switch)
