Our library system is researching a move to IE 4.0 and/or NS 4.0 for our
patrons. (We are currently using NS 3.0 only with IKIOSK) We would like to
know if any of you are able to lock down the new browser versions
sufficiently to prevent the patron from doing the following:
* accessing menus
* accessing the pc's hard drive (except c:\temp)
* adding/removing bookmarks
* changing preferences (options in IE)
* right-clicking
If you have been successful, how did you do it and what tools did it
involve?

as fast."
