i.e. Someone with Domain Admin rights, can scan the machines, identify un-authorised or un-wanted software, and then remove it remotely. Does anyone know of any tools, commercial or otherwise that will achieve this?
Try running the following VBScript through a GP on machine start. Alternatively, you could run this script against each machine individually. ```START``` strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_Product WHERE Name='Application Name as shown in ADD/REMOVE Programs' ") For Each objItem in colItems objItem.Uninstall Next ```END``` -- Mark Owen
