i'm in the process of re-imaging my sister's computer because it got swiss-cheesed with viruses/trojans/rootkits, etc. I'd rather not have to do this again, so i want to impose some restrictions on her computer.
she has all kinds of friends over all the time using her computer, so i'd like a way to make it so that anyone on the computer would have to enter a password before being allowed to install anything, but without giving them access to the administrator account. i want her to be able to install things when she wants to, but disallowing anyone else from being able to install anything.
is this possible at all?
she's on a WinXP Home SP3 system, and i'm not "upgrading" (really, "downgrading") her to Vista.....i can't stand that POS.
