Re: Blocking Downloads

A couple of approches here. First is to use the built in guest account
which would delete anything downloaded upon logo off, second is to
turn on parental controls on the selected account and then limit
downloading, Third you could limit downloading by controlling the dist
permissions and the ability to write files to the particular
directories.
