   Permits or prohibits use of this snap-in. If you enable this setting, the snap-in is permitted. If you disable the setting, the snap-in is prohibited. If this setting is not configured, the setting of the Restrict users to the explicitly permitted list of snap-ins setting determines whether this snap-in is permitted or prohibited. -- If Restrict users to the explicitly permitted list of snap-ins is enabled, users cannot use any snap-in except those explicitly permitted. To explicitly permit use of this snap-in, enable this setting. If this setting is not configured (or disabled), this snap-in is prohibited. -- If Restrict users to the explicitly permitted list of snap-ins is disabled or not configured, users can use any snap-in except those explicitly prohibited. To explicitly prohibit use of this snap-in, disable this setting. If this setting is not configured (or enabled), the snap-in is permitted. When a snap-in is prohibited, it does not appear in the Add/Remove Snap-in window in MMC. Also, when a user opens a console file that includes a prohibited snap-in, the console file opens, but the prohibited snap-in does not appear.

565-Do not request alternate credentials


Group Policy : Do not request alternate credentials

 
Group Policy Supported on :
   At least Microsoft Windows 2000
Group Policy Explain :
   Prevents users from submitting alternate logon credentials to install a program. This setting suppresses the Install Program As Other User dialog box for local and network installations. This dialog box, which prompts the current user for the user name and password of an administrator, appears when users who are not administrators try to install programs locally on their computers. This setting allows administrators who have logged on as regular users to install programs without logging off and logging on again using their administrator credentials. Many programs can be installed only by an administrator. If you enable this setting and a user does not have sufficient permissions to install a program, the installation continues with the current user's logon credentials. As a result, the installation might fail, or it might complete but not include all features. Or, it might appear to complete successfully, but the installed program might not operate correctly. If you disable this setting or do not configure it, the Install Program As Other User dialog box appears whenever users install programs locally on the computer. By default, users are not prompted for alternate logon credentials when installing programs from a network share. If enabled, this setting overrides the Request credentials for network installations setting.

544-Hide mechanisms to remove zone information


Group Policy : Hide mechanisms to remove zone information

 
Group Policy Supported on :
   At least Microsoft Windows XP Professional with SP2
Group Policy Explain :
   This policy setting allows you to manage whether users can manually remove the zone information from saved file attachments by clicking the Unblock button in the file's property sheet or by using a check box in the security warning dialog. Removing the zone information allows users to open potentially dangerous file attachments that Windows has blocked users from opening. If you enable this policy setting Windows hides the checkbox and Unblock button. If you disable this policy setting Windows shows the checkbox and Unblock button. If you do not configure this policy setting Windows shows the checkbox and Unblock button.

465-Prohibit 'Make Available Offline' for these file and folders


Group Policy : Prohibit 'Make Available Offline' for these file and folders

 
Group Policy Supported on :
   At least Microsoft Windows XP Professional or Windows Server 2003 family
Group Policy Explain :
   This policy setting allows you to manage a list of files or folders for which you wish to prohibit the 'Make Available Offline' option. If you enable this policy setting, the 'Make Available Offline' option is not available for the files or folders you list. To specify these files or folders, click Show, and then click Add. In the 'Type the name of the item to be added' box, type the fully qualified UNC path to the file or folder. Leave the 'Enter the value of the item to be added' field blank. If you disable this policy setting, the list of files or folders for which the 'Make Available Offline' option is removed (including those inherited from lower precedence GPOs) is deleted. If you do not configure this policy setting, the 'Make Available Offline' option is available for all files or folders. Notes: This policy setting appears in the Computer Configuration and User Configuration folders. If both policy settings are configured, the policy settings are combined, and the 'Make Available Offline' option will be unavailable for all specified files and folders. This policy setting does not prevent files from being automatically cached if the network share is configured for 'Automatic Caching'. It only affects the availability of the 'Make Available Offline' menu option in the user interface. If the 'Disable Make Available Offline' policy setting is enabled, this setting has no effect.
