Password for internet access... followup please!?

I'm using windows xp pro, I want to restrict internet for one user but leave it open for another.

Here's what I did (thanks Dennis R)::



Edited the group policies on the pc with the group policy editor:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307882



changed the settings by doing the following:

Expand User Configuration to set restrictions on a per-user basis.

Expand Windows Settings, and expand Internet Explorer Maintenance.

Select Connection, and double-click Proxy Settings.

Select the Enable Proxy Settings check box, add 0.0.0.0 to the HTTP entry, and click OK.

Expand Administrative Templates, and expand Windows Components.

Select Internet Explorer, and double-click Disable Changing Proxy Settings.

Select Enabled, and click OK.



Looks like this restricted it on both users... How do I make it only apply to one?!?Password for internet access... followup please!?Good question, but i think that you must be on any windows server; this is related to OUs which doesn't exist on xp unfortunately.

Anyway read the link below

i hope i was of some help to this question
