I'm setting up a location in my office for clients to access one and only one website. How do I restrict users to this - disable access to any other sites except for the links called in the original website? Is this even possible?

Thanks Leroi. Unfortunately the referenced link to the response to the link you referenced me to is not available, at least not currently. Thanks anyway.

For some unexplained reasons M$ decided to delete it. Use the following page that was automatically translated by Google from the Italian version of the same article (MSKB 267930).

Get rid of dns and put only that entry in hosts file.

They can still get past it but it works for most people.

A secondary server like untangle or another firewall would be needed in a secure area that can't be accessed by the people would be the best way. Or a proxy server.

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10
