Restricting email and web access
Paul Andrews

A friend of mine runs a small business and wants to prevent some users from
accessing the web or sending emails from the shared work PC. Each user has a
separate logon. What's the best way to prevent particular users from
accessing the web via a browser or sending email?
My friend isn't particularly a killjoy, but web access is via dialup and
there has been confusion in the past by private emails being associated with
the business.
Thanks,
Paul

Paul,
Ideally the best way would be to get a modem/router adsl, then in
that type of device you c an defined which PC is allowed to use or
not the web
other solution would be to you a proxy, but its a bit more tricky to
setup and mainly used in more than 100 conputer

Serge,
I'm afraid that this is a shared PC with people using it in shifts with
separate logins, so your suggestion won't work. Thanks for trying though!
