    Whats the best software to lock down a pc. This pc will be setup in a casino so people can play online poker. Different poker clients will be setup and it will only be used for poker internet access. I will need to just have icons on desktop no access to anything else. I have played around with microsoft steadystate but have problems updating programs ( as poker clients seem to update daily).

    You can pretty much lock down a pc without buying any additional software - try editing the local security policy go to the run box and then type gpedit.msc this will open the local computer policy where you can disable and restrict access to various areas of the PC -

    BEWARE though this policy effects all users including administrators if you want to allow an administrator to still have open access to the pc then go to %systemroot%/system32/grouppolicy (hidden folder) and change the acl on the gpt.ini file so that the admin account is not affected.
