Hello,
Does anyone know of any tricks on how to disable the F1 keyboard keys?
I have the computer pretty much locked down with Policy, but the F1 help keys and others still work which allows a few backdoors. Are there any registry entries or links anyone can point me to?
Thanks.
 
I found it.
You can stop the "Help and Support" service only in WindowsXP.
The service is a help service. If you stop it and disable it, the F1 help key will not work.
