Scripting registry

[Guest]

Hi

Could any one point me in the right direction I have tried several attempts
to lock down settings in the registry on my windows XP professional pc with
no luck.

I would like to lock desktop & screen saver options so they cannot be changed
and to lock the internet options out (some how I have managed to lock the
internet options with the following key ) but I am still having problems with
the desktop & screensaver options.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Restrictions\]
NoBrowserOptions set to 1

Also would it be possible to write a script that would carry out the
following task

1. change the NoBrowserOptions to 0 ( enable internet options)
2. Delete Cookies ---- in internet explorer
3. Delete all Temp Internet files ---- in internet explorer
4. Set the NoBrowserOptions to 1 (to lock the setting back down)

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Please take the time to learn Group Policies.

Execute; gpedit.msc

Look at; User Configuration
