    Hi

    Does anyone use this and what is it for ?
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;154780
    I dont see xp in the list-so xp users please dont try this....

    To start Internet Explorer in Kiosk mode and start Internet Explorer with the Microsoft Web site, click Start, point to Run, and then type ''''' iexplore -k www.microsoft.com'''''in the Open box.
    w/out the quotes.

    dont forget to first write down shortcut keys, so you can get out
    of this mode------ALT+F4 = Close

    Hi PeteC

    Thats what I figured,,
    not haveing ever been to a Library though :)

    So it must offer more security options, ie able to prevent access to other areas of PC and programs
