Do you make sure they wipe themselves properly too? You could just make the Desktop/ folder read-only and point firefox at some other directory (eg /tmp) for downloads. This is stuff they can undo, but it sounds like they probably just need steering away from the desktop. It's difficult to make items in someone's home directory uneditable as they own the parent directory so they can always take ownership effectively if they know what they're doing. > I'm wandering if a deep-freeze type script would be the best way to go. > Any thoughts? I've no idea what that means. You could just have a nightly script that moves all files off the desktop into /tmp.
