Is there a way to bring up only the internet when someone other than me decides to use my laptop? I dont want the individual (a couple of friends) to access anything other than the internet. Is there a way to do this?

I would log into the Admin account, create a restricted user or reg account, then run gpedit.msc and butcher the account... But if your running home edition it might not be available...

personally if your worried about what they can see on your laptop, maybe you should NOT let them on it... also, I would be more worried about what they look at on the net than anything... the wrong website can give you a wonderful virus...

Good luck, post up if you have more questions...

Or make a new user and stick them in a guest group. they will have very limited access then.

If you are still worried download/install truecrypt. Use this software (free) to password encrypt Hard drives, Files, and folders.
