Is there a way in windows 2000 GP to hide/disable the viewing if Internet
Explorer 6 history.
It seems I can disable everything besides this and the search feature.
I've diabled the butons but cannot find a way to limit access thru either a
CTRL-H or under view-Explorer Bar-etc it IE itself.
I've even enabled the 'Remove tip of the day' option yet it is present under
the Explorer Bar and does bring up the tip of the day when selected.
As a temporary fix.
I thought I saw a history cache option someplace and thought I would set it
to 0(zero) in GP, but now I cannot find that. So for now I've set it to 0
under the Internet Options in IE's general tab, then disable access to that
tab, but activity from the current day is still present.
My concern is this is a computer used for public internet access and it is
not always restart and to respect the privacy of the last user it would be
nice to hide this information.
Thanks, |

There's a custom ADM template on gruppenrichtlinien.de - a german Group
Policy portal. It would delete the history on user logoff:
CLASS USER
CATEGORY "Custom IE settings"
POLICY "Delete user history on logoff"
KEYNAME "Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main"
VALUENAME "Save_Session_History_On_Exit"
VALUEON "no" VALUEOFF "yes"
END POLICY
END CATEGORY
cheers,
Florian

Thanks for your reply,but I'm looking for a way to leave the computer logged
on all day.
So someone could simply walk away and by closing the current window, the
history would also go away. Not only as a convenience but a reality. I
watched three people use it on Friday and they simply closed the browser
window and walked away.
That's where I thought eliminating the ability to get to the history would
solve the issue.
Thanks again for your time.

How about creating a scheduled task that runs every 60 minutes that
deletes the appropriate folder/files? If your PCs are in a Domain, you
could push this out as a GPO.

That too is an idea, I was just hoping that with all this magical power of
group policy and with all the other restrictions you can place on a PC that
this would be one.
Especially in the days of privacy, but I guess 2000 was developed before
this was much of an issue.
I really do appreciate all of the suggestions!
Thanks,
Tom
