Lcoking system clock

I am attempting to find a registry key so that i can lock users from changing
the clock on there pc. I have to keep the clock up there but I need to make
sure they can't modify the time in any way.

Couple things:

1. Rename C:\Windows\System32\DllCache\timedate.cpl to timedate.cpl.bak
2. Rename C:\Windows\System32\timedate.cpl to timedate.cpl.bak

Open Registry and modify each user's key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System

DisableCMD REG_DWORD 2

If the Value does not exist (or any of the keys) create each branch and then
add the key.
This will disable user's from dropping to Command Prompt and changing the
date/time from there (as well as creating batch files that can also do it).
