Well, the girl I work with apparently is letting her boyfriend come in with her over the weekend and while she’s here “working” (yeah right) he uses MY computer to play on the internet. No big deal except he’s viewing sites like www.hootersair.com, www.bentley.com, www.coyoteuglysaloon.com, etc. which if my GM ever decides to check on the internet usage, will show up under my IP address and get me into trouble. :rant:
So, how can I block anyone except me from using IE? (I have Firefox too, but I don’t think he’s smart enough to figure out that it’s a browser).
I could password protect my whole PC, but for some reason whenever it goes into a screensaver or other “not active” mode it won’t let anyone on our network view my computer (My computer is the only one that does this!) not to mention that sometimes other people have to get on my computer, which means I would have to give out the password to people, which defeats the entire purpose anyways.
How can I keep my co-workers boyfriend off my computer!!! :rant:
hmmmmm, that sounds OK… I could make a “guest” user that has the same files and stuff as my Administrator user, looks exactly the same, but the IE won’t work. Log myself out on Friday, and password protect the Administrator user so that he can’t login (only give our admin here the password). He’ll have to pick the guest user, and IE will default to a page I set that says “haha, can’t use me”. This is great.
No, this would be “guest2” which I renamed from something else, but I only want it to have limited access, and I can’t change the settings on the “guest2” account. I’m not fooling with the default guest IE account.
