Hello,

I need to find out some information on software security.  Specifically,
how to keep someone from copying via the finder.  I believe most security
software locks or protects disk drives and volumes, but my situation needs
are to have a user have read-write access to a drive, but not walk out the
door with some of the drives contents.  I thought I got wind of a DA/INIT
that locked the icon positions on the desktop so that dragging and copying 
via the finder were disabled.  Does this animal exist? Also, I believe this
situation would be less intimidating than using a muzzle. Any suggestions or 
information would be helpful.

Thanks in advance,
Les Wardwell
