Administration-group policy editor-for XP pro-help

[Tritton]

I need to set a computer so that one account had very restricted access but i don't know how to only set it to only one account

let me explain this computer is for a pre-school so one account 'staff account' will need to be a normal admin acccount while there will be the account that the kids will use (4 and under) so need very restricted access.
i have had a look at the group policy edit but can't work it out

also it's it possible to disable the restart button.

Steady State ensures the system is not modified;

see Steady State

google has an interesting read

and here's a list of some software

idealy i won't want to use 3rd party programmes the idea was to use the group policy editor

run command=gpedit.msc

well i have installed steady state and now it's showing the administrator account and it shouldn't be i only want it to display the staff account and the pre-school account

hum; I don't have SS installed, but would think that whatever is made available would be password protected (especially for Admin).
If so, then you only need a strong password to keep the kids out.

well looking though the setting i found a tick box for it in then end
it would seem when you install SS it makes the admin account visable, you then have to tick a box to turn it off

tnanks to all that help my problem is now solved-although i do wonder why XP has the group policy editor if it applys it to all uses?
