The following restrictions are available in this group:

  • Restricting access to the event logs - The Windows NT event log contains records documenting application, security and system events taking place on the machine.

Option affects the whole PC. Reboot your PC to activate or deactivate this option. Applicable to Windows NT/2000/XP.
  • Stopping the knowndlls vulnerability - In Windows NT the core operating system DLLs are kept in virtual memory and shared between the programs running on the system.

Reboot your PC to activate or deactivate this option. Applicable to Windows NT/2000/XP.
  • Clear the page file at system shutdown - Windows normally does not clear or recreate the page file. On a heavy used system this can be both a security threat and performance drop.

  • Disable multiple user sessions and fast user switching - By default, Windows XP gives you an ability to switch between users without logging off that keeps all active users on your PC with all started processes and programs.
