Blocking access to a program that can be used to access data, whether
that data is the Internet, a database, some files, or whatever, is not a
good security method by any means.  There will always be a way to access
data until you secure the data itself.

Hi, have scanned the archives but struggled find anything.  I need to
stop users being able to put URL's into the Windows Explorer address bar
and surfing the net.  We've restricted Internet Explorer to certain
times of the day but users are begining to realise that they can still
surf the net from Explorer.exe and it's becoming a real pain.

Anyone got any good pointers or suggestions would be great.
