how to make windows secure over REGEDIT

have you ever questioned yourself, how to hide the complete desktop of a guestaccount?

well, here is the way to get it;


---THE USER NEEDS ADMIN RIGHTS FOR A SHORT TIME---
logon with the user u wanna manipulate [guest account].
---!!!---


click on start/run and type "regedit". the registryeditor [regedit32] should come up and you should see your computer registry with the hive-keys

classes_root
current_user
local_machine

etc.

browse through "hkey_current_user" and go to "software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\policies\explorer"

on the right-window-side rightclick your mouse, ->new->binary

so... and there it goes. Name it like a keyword, and give it the value "10 10 10".

keywords:

"NoDesktop" hides ALL ICONS ON THE DESKTOP and DISABLES THE RIGHT MOUSEBUTTON
"NoRun" the startmenu "run"[ausführen] will not be shown
"NoFind" same as run.
"NoAutoRun" NO DRIVE TYPE AUTORUN [nor cd or dvd, usbstick or else]
