We have just installed the Internet on our NT network, after many setbacks and
frustrations.  There a a few problems which no one here seems able to solve and
would appreciate it very much if anyone could advise or suggest an email of
someone who could help.

We are running a Windows NT Network (NT server 4 and NT workstation 4).  There
are 520 pupils registered on the network, plus staff and there are 25 work
stations.  We could use either Internet Explorer or Netscape as a browser.

We want to know how we can have a web browser and email client on each work
station for pupil use, but to restrict them from saving their own email
addresses and bookmarks on the local drive of each machine. We wish to prevent
pupils from viewing each others (or staff members) email addresses. The option
with bookmarks would be to have one set for all to use or to allow each pupil
to have their own private individual bookmarks.  We need to either block this
facility or to let them save them into their own areas. They all log on as
individual users and have space allocated to them on the file server.  Each
pupil may well use a different work station each time they come into the centre.
