I have a user that is constantly playing games. I
restrict the sol.exe game from being executed using GPO,
but i think the user might have change the name of the
exe.

Any ideas?

Thanks Jon
 
You can use a hash rule software restriction in a GPO I believe, have a look at this article
http://msd2d.com/newsletter_tip.aspx?section=server&id=a8881fa9-d02e-4d7f-96e8-d56fae13ad6

Here's a bit borrowed from the article

"A hash rule is a rule that is based on a mathematical hash of a file. The nice thing about hash rules is that a user can’t hide or disguise a file because even if they renamed or moved a file, the hash will be the same. For example, when I worked at Fort Knox, it seemed that everyone had a deer hunting game on their PC. If software restriction policies had existed back then, I could have hashed the program’s executable file and prevented anyone from running it.
