1: I believe that you can apply Policies to all three OSes, although quite possibly with varying degrees of effectiveness. This "should" allow you to restrict users ability to install applications. 2: Antivirus software will protect you from viral infections, but its effectiveness will be very much reliant upon the product, regularity of updates, your internal security policies, etc. Mark ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- -----Original Message----- From: Robert Reidenbach [mailto:pominciss () greendot com ph] Sent: 24 September 2003 06:25 To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: protect MS Windows 95/98/Me Hi everyone! I'm looking for a software that you can install on MS Windows 95/98/Me Machines that won't allow an ordinary user to install any programs or allow any virus to infect any files. Would anybody know what they call these programs and where to get them? Any kind of help will be appreciated. -Robert- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- _____________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for viruses by MCI's Internet Managed Scanning Services - powered by MessageLabs.
