prevent double click programs c drive

[phil2627]

Is there a way to prevent users from double click "programs" in the
start menu to access the local drive ? We are trying to prevent this
from happening and thought we found a way with registry entries, but
after merging the registry entries we started getting explorer errors
and 'Restore Active Desktop' problems. We can do this with a group
policy if we 'restrict' access to the C drive, but a user cannot use
"My Documents". Thanks.

You might look at the Shared Computer Toolkit from MS, or Doug Knox's XP
Security Console.

Not sure if this will do the trick, but first, you responded and
second, you turned us on to something to help lockdown our lab
computers. Thank you very much.
