Yeah I have been working with I-Kiosk and it does as advertised. What it
doesn't do is allow you to restict access to buttons, like the Mail icon
on Netscape. Still it will help alot in stopping people from accessing
the preferences. We are also looking to use it to "grey" out options on some
of our helper applications, such as Telnet configuration menus, etc.
Where our biggest hole in Windows 95 clients is stopping people from saving
to the C drive. Want to allow people to save to the A drive and would like
it to default to A drive as well. This is not only in the "Save as..." menu
in Netscape, but also when people get the "Helper Application or Plug-in Not
Found Dialog boxes."
