Unattended PC Query

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

Is there any online info regarding the implications/problems etc., in
placing a PC running XP SP2, in a public location, and confining it's use to
just accessing a website which would exist on the Hard Drive?
I would expect that it could be fraught with problems, but welcome any
comments.
TIA
