I have a web that users will be browsing with a touch screen monitor. How can
hide the task bar and IE toolbar so that the only they could be accessed is
by keyboard? I am doing this so the user can never close the web page. The
keyboard will be locked away in the cabinet.
 
Thanks Mark. I know F11 takes it to full screen, but I don't want the user to
be able to close the browser. The only input device the user will have will
be a touch screen, so all I need to do is permantly hide the ie toobar and
the windows task bar.
 
Thanks a lot. I will try it tomorrow and let you know. Again, I really
appreciate your help.
 
It worked, the key that needs to be created is
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions
a DWORD with the name NoBrowserClose and a value of 1. Thanks again. I am
making progress. I have decided to leave the ie bar and remove all of the
buttons except for back, forward, home and refresh. I will also need to
permanently hide the task bar, disable minimize and resize of the browser
window and force open of IE in Full screen mode.

Is "kiosk mode" sufficient for your needs?

Start or Run... iexplore.exe -k

I found it finally. It was right under my nose. Searched for command line
switches for IE.

Do you know how to force the the browser back to the home page after being
idle for a set amount of time?

Thanks again,
