How can I disable to execute local paths in adress bar in Internet explorer?

If you put for example this - c:\folder - into IE6 adress bar, it simply goes there.

Off course I do not mean to disable somebody to write it there. I mean when he presses ENTER, then nothing shoud happen.

I want only HTTP or web pages allowed.

40 views and nothing...allright, not that easy one.

I found it at last...

not a REG tweak though, a GroupPolicy setting.

StartMenu/Run/"gpedit.msc"
User Configuration/Administrative Templates/
set "Remove RUN menu from StartMenu" to ALLOWED.

The sideeffect is that you don't have access to STARTMENU\RUN anymore.
Actually, a good sideefect for me, because its a thin client, I am fiddling around with.

Off course, I am not able to run the Group Policy MMC console from the RUN anymore because its not there...one would think its a trap...
No problem - you can still locate "gpedit.msc" in C:\windows\system32

I Hope you will find this info helpfull... :rolleyes:
