re: Disable internet? Tuesday, October 6, 2009 at 9:28 pm Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Adam Bradley (7826 messages posted) If you need that level of lockout look into proxy servers and/or the settings on your firewall, but if you have not tried already I would recommend trying the approach of laying down rules and following thru on them. Dealing user problems by talking to the users is always better from a relations standpoint. As a side note, blocking ports will do nothing to block browser based games as they are standard web traffic. Closet you can get is removing Java and Flash and locking the computers down so they cannot be reinstalled.
