Find the application... get info, choose the Permissions option, and you can configure your user to only load run (Execute) the application. Another option is assign him to a different group than the other users, only allow the main users to run those programs and set your brother to a different group. You then disable the Everyone option from running said programs. -- Ryan Coleman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Coleman Web/Internet Services http://www.coleman-web.net (612) 378-7901 Should Selig be tossed out?
