    I am trying to set up a machine for mainly internet browsing and some locally installed catalogue software. It will be a kiosk machine and I dont want users able to change any aspect of Internet explorer

    I want an html page of web links to be the desktop wallpaper which I have accomplished by Acivating active desktop and selecting "My current home page" in the web tab of the display settings.

    When I do this, there is a strip of the old desktop wallpaper down the left hand side of the screen to make room for the screen icons. I have disabled all the icons using IEAK and don't need them at all.

    Can anyone tell me how to force the webpage to take up the whole of the screen? I have looked around the registry, but can't find anything relevant

    Thanks

    It's ok, I found the solution. Instead of using active desktop I just set the html page as wallpaper.
