Request for assistance - User Access

Our company has a stand a long laptop - No domain - Its primary function is
to connect using IE to our four local-internal Webcam servers (Windows XP)
for surveillance purposes. We had two kind of users logging into the
computer. Administrator and security are the names for the two user's
profiles. The computer has access to the Internet, MS Office, Windows games,
etc.

Our goal is to grant the Administrator full access to all of the resources
available into the computer. The second user profile "Security" should ONLY
have access to the IE to view the WEBCAM servers (No access to the Internet
or any other software).

If you have any suggestions on how to accomplish this will be very
appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help and assistance with this task!

I'd check out Doug Knox's XP security console (google for it), or other
third party apps. Perhaps Windows Steady State. I haven't used any of these,
mind you!

You can't use group policy for this as it's a standalone machine.
