We are using the windows search function on windows 2000. Is there a way to remove the search for computers selection or to restrict this? Thanks!

You can set this in Group Policy:

Under User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Start Menu and Taskbar

There is an entry "Remove Search button from Start Menu"

Set to Enable.

hope this helps

Not quite the answers I'm looking for...What we want to do is open the search function for users, but limit it to searching for files only, not all the other stuff like search for computers that appears at the bottom of the search selection list. Thanks!
