It's not exactly elegant, but here is what I have done 
previously on a Windows 16-bit version...

issue this command at your DOS prompt:

	attrib -w netscape.ini

this will write protect the netscape.ini file.  A user can make 
all the changes he/she wants while in a session, but those 
changes will not be written to the .ini file when they close the 
program and the original settings will keep for the next 
session.
