Hi there,

How to prevent a user from rebooting computer, invoking Task Manager,
activating Task Bar , etc.
API? Any available tools, classes? Any ideas ?

oh surely you jest.........
better qualify the OS, it's much harder to do on 2K/XP pro.

And you really have to indicate whether this is for normal users, or
the potentially very savvy, as the first is fairly simple, and the
second not so....

you could head hook the keyboard, that would be a start :-)

I'm pretty sure theres no way to override the reset button, save for a
few magical blue screens that stall the proc...
 
DONT TELL HIM!!!
He'll drive users crazy, I hate applications that "take
over your computer" like AOL and a lot of the spy-ware
programs. If you must, 2000 and XP have a ton of settings
for users, you could disable users rights to shut down the
computer, load task manager etc.

You should set up the right policy for this computer (Group policy /
Computer policy). This is the right way of doing this.
