I want to limit a users ability to create a launcher from the desktop. I've locked down the menus and function keys and turned off the other executable bit for terminals and a couple of other programs so these can't be used from the desktop. But it would be easier if I could disable it (remove right-click menu) in one place instead of having to do it to individual programs I don't want the user to launch. I know it's not the best scenerio, but it's getting me closer to my goal of locking down the system while still providing a usable desktop. I know it's sometimes a file line between usability and security. That's my reason. Thanks for any insight you can provide.
