I want to edit the registry in windows XP professional to limit the users from writing to removable disks , floppies,CDs,etc. without administrator username/password.

I want the windows to ask for administrator username/password before copying any file to removable disks , floppies,CDs,etc.

Thanks for your Help.

its possible to use do the above by first making and defining a group of users via the computer management console. MY COMPUTER, Right click and MANAGE.right click on groups and make a new group name, then run GPEDIT.MSC and change through double clicking on the security tab and picking a task.here you can define which options you want your user groups to have or not to have. Just play around a bit, it'll work in the end ;-)
