Kiosk mode for Windows

Anyone know of an external that will give you kiosk behavior on Windows? no ctrl+alt+del or alt+tab, etc.

Dear jwbuzz,

You could create a revlet and start up IE in kiosk mode. You will need to enter the following in a console window or write a VBScript or other little executable file for it. I'm not sure what the path parameter should be like but it should look like this:

iexplore -k file:///C:\path\to\your\file.html

Best,

Mark
