Using the techniques described in the KB (Q242092 - How to:
Use System Policies to Hide Specific Drives) I've been able
successfully hide drives located in a stand-alone WinNT 4.0
Workstation. The default user is only allowed to view
their own personal drive/folders. This process works fine
when viewing directories using Win Explorer, My Computer,
and the DOS prompt.
One problem. I just found that a user can view the hidden
drives when attaching a file using OUTLOOK 98. Using this
technique the users is able to copy, cut, paste, or delete
files on the hidden drives.
Any suggestions?
