I have a DEMO computer that always connected to the internet in my showroom.
What i need to do is: I want to LOCK my IE to access to other URL but only to my company site.
e.g.
When i on the DEMO computer, it will connect to the internet and IE will be loaded. i have set the IE default page to http://myofficialsite.com.
My problems is, i need to prevent my customer to use that computer for other purpose something like browsing, emailing or chatting.

To lock the security tab, simply add the following dword in the registry. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel Add reg_dword = SecurityTab dword = 1
For more info, see [link]http://www.jsiinc.com/subk/tip5100/rh5165.htm[/link]
To automatically propogate these security settings, you might need to create a logon(login) script.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings and HKEY_Local_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
