Don't want to have a fight going on here now, you two .
Kurrent: Eric was meaning to disable IE to baffle the more casual/basic computer user. Most basic computer users don't even know there's other browsers other than IE out there, so how would they know to bring a portable FF or FF installer with them?
Both ideas I think are fairly good; The proxy idea would deter a normal user, and maybe put a bit of a roadblock on a more of a pro until s/he checks the IE settings. Both ways are not fool-proof on a pro, but are good for deterring a basic user.
right.
if you truly want to eliminate it boot from a Linux live cd or a bartpe cd with no internet connection but live support. or do the server domain thing
