Question Create user limited access

Hi,

So, I'm sure we have all worked in an office workstation where we had limited access to files, ways of using a program, (things greyed out so that they are not accessible). I have XP home and have my admin account and a second account setup with limited access. However, I am wondering if I can set up the second account with more thorough limited acesss as stated above? Or is there another program to be used?

Thanks!

You really need XP Pro and group policy to be able to fine tune access like you want. XP Pro also has power user in addition to admin and limited.
