Hi Is there any way of preventing people accessing the internet by typing the url into 'my computer' or windows explorer windows? We are a school and have found students using this method to access the internet even though we have removed IE. We are using Windows 98/NT Thanks for any help Dave

ZoneAlarm, software firewall, YIKES! Software firewall is too lame.
Kids can crack ZoneAlarm, don't underestimate them. You can block WWW
or port 80, 443, 8080, 8001, etc. by Mac address.
