Hi all,

Is it possible to selectively disable USB devices? For instance, only
mice and printers should work when connected to a USB port but flash
drives, other mp3 players etc should not work when connected to the
same USB ports.

this seems to be a solution

In operating system terms, we are looking at Windows XP professional
sp2 and Windows 2000 sp4.
