I manage a system where I need to restrict users from accessing the desktop and running other applications. The search for ways to achieve this returned several different techniques. Although in the end I didn t use any of the techniques described here, I decided to compile all the code in one application for everyone who should need it.Note: I don t claim to be the author of any of the code presented in this article. The application is a compilation of several sources and I will try to acknowledge the authors whenever possible.
