Hi all,

how to protect a workstation with W2K, without floppy and CD drive but 
with open USB port (for scanner) against user with USB token (RAM disk) 
with native W2K support and prevent data robbery or installation of 
unauthorised SW on the workstation?

I will appreciate any recommendation, idea, URL or pushing in right 
direction.

Thanks in advance

Vladimir
