Thank you for your comment.

At the time of writing, the procedure was not tested on version 10. We may look into tweaking this procedure to work with newer versions.

Thanks and regards,

Ben

Thank you for your comment.

Have you tried deploying the GPO to other computers, apart from the Windows XP machines? Would it also be possible to send us screenshots illustrating the issue so that we can understand better?

However, since the issue is with the GPO part of the procedure, there is limited support we can provide from a GFI support perspective. The issue may need to be tackled by Microsoft Support (http://support.microsoft.com/?ln=en-gb).

Thanks and regards,

Ben Vincenti

IT seems like startup.vbs and firefoxlock.adm is not working on xp sp3 clients.

firfox_login.vbs and firefoxDefaults.adm is giving desired results when setup under user configuration part of the GPO but it still allows users to change these pushed settings.

The computer configuration part of the adm and startup script is not locking the settings.

Can we troubleshoot this issue. Your help will be greatly appreciative
