As in subject - a good few of users in the company are using MSN and it is both taking a good degree of bandwidth and also pulling down all and sundry type of files - I want to be ble to disable it friom the registry - some users have and must have local admin rights due to certain apps that they need to run - this obviously enables them to install anything - If we were to disable or make a change to the registry then they will not be able to use it and they will not be able to call the guys on the helpdesk as MSN is unsupported

I used " disabling MSN messenger on network" as keywords in the google search her is the google page the link may not have worked becasue it defaults as a PDF download you have to choose " view as HTML"
its the top entry. "secure registry tips and tweaks"
