    Hi, is there a way to turn off a hardware device like a NIC card for a specific XP user acct. I came up dry on in the XP forum but thought that maybe the hardware guys might know.

    Thanks, Lar

    In XP Pro: (logged on as Admin or member of Admin Group)
    Start > Run > GPEDIT.MSC
    Set network polices for Users other than Administrators.

    Hi Tony, that is a pretty interesting editor. Honestly, I couldn't find my around there very well, though. Sorry, but could you be more specific? Thanks, Lar
