Hi Mike,

thanks for the group policy tip. Must admit I need to investigate group policy settings in more detail, think I’m missing out on a lot of control to prevent users doing things that may be ‘unwise’. Always more to learn….

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for coming along & thanks for the write-up.

One thing I’d say around the Silverlight security is that for managed environments you can use group policy to stop a user installing any trusted out-of-browser Silverlight applications so ( for those environments ) that removes the risk that you mention.

Thanks,

Mike.
