Hi,
Here some Introduction about the Windows 7 AppLocker

Windows 7 addresses the growing desire for application contro
solutions in the enterprise with the introduction of AppLocker:
simple and flexible mechanism that allows administrators to specif
exactly what is allowed to run in their desktop environment. As
result, AppLocker provides not only security protections, but als
operational and compliance benefits by:

* Keeping unlicensed software from running in your deskto
environment

* Preventing vulnerable, unauthorized applications from running i
your desktop environment, including malware

* Stopping users from running applications that needlessly consum
network bandwidth or otherwise impact the enterprise computin
environment

* Preventing users from running applications that destabilize thei
desktop environment and increase helpdesk support costs

* Easing enterprise software deployments and maintenance throug
effective desktop configuration management

* Allow users to install and run approved applications and softwar
updates based upon their business needs

* Helping ensure your desktop environment is in compliance wit
corporate policies and industry regulations such as PCI DSS
Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, Basel II, and other
 
And, it establishes another tool for the "control freaks" that often inhabit
IT departments. <G>
