Preventing Internet Access

[Guest]

I currently run Windows XP Pro with 3 user accounts. To of them have access
to just about everything and have their own passwords. The other one is a
miscellaneous user account, that I want to have available for folks who want
access to files. The one thing I don't want this third account to be able to
do is access the internet. Is there an easy way to prevent that one account
from accessing the internet?

Thanks for you help.

Restrict certain computers on a network accessing the Internet

1. Create a batch file to re-setup TCP/IP.
2. Edit registry LAN settings depending on who logon.
3. If you have a router, you may be able to restrict the Internet access

I think these are probably all good options, but I think a little more
information and maybe a step-by-step process would be helpful. These are
features of windows that I don't normally work with and so I am unfamiliar.
If there are specific user policies that I can change, that would help as
well.

Thanks for your help.
