Hi All,

Sorry for the [OT] tag but I need to tap into the wealth of knowledge on
the
list.

Its sort of related to automation in that I want to stop Kye from
automatically srewing up the PC!

At the ripe old age of 18 months anything with buttons is a source of great
fascination ( cant understand where he gets it from myself! ) and he is now
starting to play with the PC.

In an attempt to limit the damage he can do to the PC I created an account
for him which also fires up the CBeebies website when he is logged on. So
far so good.... except that he keeps on Right Clicking which tends to cause
chaos.

I have looked in control panel but cant see any way to prevent a right
click
so the questions are....

1. Is there a way to disable Right Click for a single user ?

2. Is there a peice of software that can do this ?

3. Is it possible to connect a USB Single Button MAC mouse to a WinXP
machine and have it work ?

Thanks in advance

Keith
