    Try a software restriction policy (hash rule).

    It should work anyway. After all the exe or msi or whathaveyou is an app, so just create a hash rule for the file to prevent it from running, and no one will be able to open the file and thus will be prevented from installing it.

    Group Policy should take care of that if deployed correctly. Deny them administrative rights and they should not be able to install anything. The hash rule will only work for one application at a time. If you want to block them from being able to install just about everything, group policy is the way to do it. Of course it will not block them from being able to install applications that do not modify the registry but you could use the hash rules for that.[/i]

    How about granting a 'User' the right to install progs? I have not been able to find that in GP. Any ideas?

    A user unless restricted should be able to install sw onto a workstation by default. You could however deploy a set amount of sw through GP and allow them to install it by going into add/remove programs and slecting item to install.

    First make sure they don't have admin rights on the workstation...

    Is it a specific software?

    I am sure you could disable the MS Installer for the user, which would disable the ability to install the majority of apps. However if you allow a user to run any application he wants, rather than a specific list, , if an app used its own installer, there would not be any way of distinguishing that app that happens to be an installer from any other app and inhibit it.
