I think it was from Jan B Hi Jim You caught me on my first real lunch break in over 6 months. So I tapped up this little program to help solve your issue: CANTTOUCHTHIS.EXE Download it from http://www.ctrl-alt-del.com.au/CAD_GUtils.htm CantTouchthis is a standalone Windows GUI executable designed to replace existing executable files that an administrator does not want a user to run. The idea of the program is to simply replace an existing executable with this program to restrict a user making any calls to an existing program which may be restricted to the user base. Instead of the original program, CantTouchThis will show a popup dialog box on the screen that will informa the user that the application is not available. This application has been tested on the following platforms: Windows 7 Professional Windows 2008 Server Windows 2003 Server SP1 Windows 2003 Server SP1 w/ Citrix PS 4.0 Windows 2003 Server SP1 (Terminal Server Application Mode) Windows 2000 Server SP4 Windows 2000 Server SP4 w/ Citrix MF XP Windows 2000 Server SP4 (Terminal Server Application Mode) Windows 2000 Server SP4 w/ Citrix MF 1.8 Windows XP Professional (domain member) This utility is FREEWARE and was written by Warren Simondson of Ctrl-Alt-Del IT Consultancy, Australia. www.ctrl-alt-del.com.au The freeware version is offered AS IS.
