Policy wanted to set default Outlook new mail signature
I want to impose a policy on my domain Outlook users that sets the default signature for new mail (we have already distributed the signature files). However, I'm new at this and confused as to just how to go about it. There doesn't seem to be a settting for it provided in the management console, so I think I have to create a new .adm template for it? I'm not really sure how to d...

Group Policy - Encrypt Offline File Cache
I have had a good read up of EFS. However I am not looking to encrypt data on the network, simply encrypt the offline cache of remote users. I do not feel this requires the creation of recovery agents / exporting certificates. I was advised that encrypting the offline cache is not 100% as files may be viewable via the temp folder or held in the page file. I created a GPO and configured...

Windows Media Player ignores policy on XP
I've enabled the user GPO for "Prevent CD and DVD Media Information Retrieval". It works for W2K3 WMP 10 and Vista WMP 11. That policy said it works for series 9 and later... but our Windows XP WMP 9.0.0.3349 clients ignore the policy settings which I verified are in the user's registry.

IE7 and Intranet Zone policy
Starting with IE7 the browser behaves diferently when opening popup windows from sites considered to be in an Intranet zone vs the Internet zone. The Intranet behavior is to forgiving (i.e. alowing users to size windows that are marked non-sizable, allowing URL manipulation, etc.). As we have an internal web application that needs to be tightly controled, I need all my users who access o...
