Have you ever want to block a user's ability to surf the Web using Internet Explorer? Here's how you can do that! Use a Group Policy Object (GPO) that forces Internet Explorer to use a proxy server with an address of 0.0.0.0 for port 80 requests. Then create another policy that states a user is not able to change the proxy server address in Internet Explorer. Both policies are applied to the user and not the computer.

The policy settings are located in the following locations in the GPO: User Settings --> Windows Settings --> Internet Explorer Maintenance --> Connection Then open the Proxy Settings window and add 0.0.0.0 for port 80. User Settings --> Administrative Templates --> Windows Components --> Internet Explorer Then set Disable Changing Proxy Settings. Good luck ...

Read on as we show you how to tame Chrome and get it to play nice with Flash. More so than other browsers, Google Chrome is particularly susceptible to a specific but not uncommon situation in which it simply will not coexist peacefully with Adobe Flash—frequent slow downs and annoying crashes are common as a result. The following tutorial will help you get Chrome back to its speedy self. What’s Causes The Issue?

By M S Ali Nov 07, 2012, 11:33 AM GMT W hen it comes to IT skills and expertise, there are all kinds of “best certification” lists. Pundits are quick to add the safe bets: Cisco’s CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert), Red Hat’s RHCE (Red Hat Certified Engineer), and other popular choices. This isn’t that list. Based on years of experience meeting with clients and organizations too numerous to count, I’ve built this list with the idea of cataloging the IT industry’s 10 most practical, in-demand certifications.
