How to block access to control panel

[JOE]

Using Win XP Pro, Home,Media edition, having one admin account and one
limited user account,how do I restrict access to control panel,internet
options, history delete,TIF folder.
I want the limited users to use IE,MS office and other programs. But
I don't want them to delete any history,tif files or make any changes to
desktop. Thanks in advance.

Have you tried going to control panel, user accounts, create a new limited
account that will block the access to the files you want...they cannot change
any settings on the original account.

You can go through all the settings in the local policy and restrict users
as you like. This will affect all users.

A much easier way is with the Shared Computer Toolkit
