Security for user

I need to configure machines at work that will not allow
the users to have access to the "A" drive, c drive,
explorer, my computer, etc. They will only have access
to one program for educational purposes. I went
to "gpedit" and removed many options, I want the users to
be able to drag and drop but I do not want them to have
right click options and I do not want them to have access
to windows explorer, C drive etc. I seemed to be
successful except if the user right clicks on the desk
top they get options for "new folder", "notepad", "zip
files" etc. which then allows them to go into the c drive
and everywhere. I think I need to change settings in
admin tools, security,local security but cannot quite
figure out the correct settings. Any help would be
appreciated.
Thank You

kadg,

You can disable the "Right Click" context menu on the desktop and explorer
windows, this setting is in Group Policy Editor, under the Administrative
Template section, and then Windows Explorer. In there youll see an option
called "Remove Windows Explorer's default Context Menu". This basically
does exactly what it says, removes the Explorer Context Menu.

Hope this helps
