| Guest | Re: Prevent Other users shutting the computer down Hello, you can do this using Group Policy. Have you got Vista Business/Ultimate? Press Windows-key + R -> gpedit.msc -> Enter . In the left, open Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment -> Shut down the system: Double click this item -> add/remove users who may shut down the computer.

| Guest | Re: Prevent Other users shutting the computer down No matter what you might be able to accomplish with various software settings, there's no way to prevent them from hitting the power switch. Perhaps you'll have to cut off their arms and legs. But then, do you really want your office to be filled with people who look (and now probably will whine) like the Black Night?
