[WEB4LIB] IE5 favorites lock down

[Lori Bowen Ayre]

You might want to look at the Public Web Browser freeware product from
TeamSoft (www.teamsoft.webjump.com) which has been mentioned on this list
several times lately.  It allows you to hide the Favorites button and it has
a Kiosk mode, both of which may help you get the effect you are looking for.
It has several other very nice customizable features that make it worth
taking a peek at.

I've downloaded it for the purposes of trying out different options for
complying with the new CIPA filtering law -- wish me luck!

Subject: [WEB4LIB] IE5 favorites lock down


We currently are using Navigator 4.0 on NT4.0 workstations and are
planning to change to IE5.5. Is there a way to keep users from adding
to/or changing an existing Favorite's list? I know how to lock it down
in Navigator, but was wondering how it can be done on IE5.5.

Thanks,

Eric Nagamine
