>> Have a look at sitekiosk (www.sitekiosk.com). Its a professional program for creating public access internet kiosks. It lets you allow users to only visit particular sites (eg. the heritage ones) and blocks everything else. There's a free demo and a "non-profit" version for 99 Euros (about £65). << I should have added that as well as a separate network we use the "non profit" version of SiteKiosk for all workstations in the public and gallery spaces as well and have found it very useful.

They would of course like to stop the possibility of this being used to access inappropriate sites by using a filter.=20 >> Its a really powerful program with about a million options so the only thing to watch for is that it may take you several goes to get all the settings right. You can use it with a touchscreen, mouse or trackball. Devlin sell nice keyboards and trackballs for kiosks if you want one (http://www.devlin.co.uk/keyboards/kiosks.html) All the best Joe ************************************************** For mcg information and to manage your subscription to the list, visit the website at http://www.museumscomputergroup.org.uk ************************************************** ************************************************** For mcg information and to manage your subscription to the list, visit the website at http://www.museumscomputergroup.org.uk **************************************************
