Some of my LAN users are bipassing my IE restrictions simply by using Outlook to browse the web. Anyone suggest a way of preventing this, Reg edit etc? Thanks

Why don't you block HTTP ports?. You could also block the SSL port if you do not use it for anything else.

Well problem is its a shared PC (Win2K Domain) and other user is allowed web access. What I'm looking for I guess is a hack to prevent users adding the Web button to the Toolbar, (which you can do for IE through mmc) I have IE itself restricted by applying Security Permissions to the executable. I'll probably end up making them use Outlook Express if they don't play ball (stay off unsavory websites and kazaar!). But thanks for responding anyway.
