Disable Internet Access per user account

C

::Cory::

I have a Windows XP Pro SP2 computer with multiple accounts (limited and
power users) and one Admin account.

I would like to disable ALL internet access (browsing, mail, everything) for
only one person on this computer without disrupting the internet usage on
the other accounts.

Does anyone know an easy way to do this within Windows?

Thanks,

::CORY::

since you have not received any reply in 8 hours, i will make an attempt
to answer, although i have never tried it because i have never had this
need/issue.

call your ISP and ask them to change the login password. now nobody but
you will know the password to connect to your ISP. do not give this
password to anybody.

of course, next time each user tries connecting to the ISP, it will fail
and ask for the password. be sure you type it in yourself, don't give
the password to anybody, and Do Not Check the box labeled Save This
Password For Everybody Who Uses This Computer. only check the box
labeled Save This Password For Me Only. what i don't know is whether or
not you have to delete and recreate the Network Connection in Control
Panel to make this work.

it might be tedious, but it definitely is not complicated, and you only
have to do it once for each user that you approve. let us know if this
works or not.

i also welcome anybody else to correct me or offer another solution.
