    Hi,

    I am curious, if there is a PROPER way to use LUA and SRP in Vista Home.

    Anyone using LUA and SRP in Vista Home?

    Can you guys perhaps tell me how to do it or give me a link?

    Thanks!

    Regards

    Don't forget to have a deep look here:

    What applies to Xp does as well to Vista. Concerning protection of user startup keys, default system ACL (both necessary before implementing SRP to ensure a maximum efficacy), you will find valuable information.

    Thanks all! :)
    I still have a question. o_O
    Does it work properly?
    Since there is no official SRP for Vista Home Premium K, I'm not sure if I should even start implementing SRP in the first place. :doubt:
    However, if it does do what it should do without any problems, then what the heck, I want to try it out.
    However, as Lucy stated, "Pease, do not do it if you are not sure of what you are doing",
    I'm not sure what I am doing, but I want to try it out.
    HELP!

    You should have no fear. It is simple registry values that are employed if you don't use gpedit or secpol. SRP also is bypassed during safe boot for xp. don't know about how that would work in vista though.

    You should be able to merge in Lucy's default reg values. I believe tlu has one floating somewhere in Lucy's thread too. Then it is easy to add your own rules if you like. Reg values can be deleted. And if you take care to state the policy level as apply to users only, you can create a user account (LUA) and try to block IE or FF or something. See if it works, how it works, etc etc. Of course this will require you to have some experience with .reg files and the registry. but not a big deal really.

    That is my opinion having done it now dozens of times on xp pro, xp home and vista ultimate.

    Sul.

    If something had to go very wrong, restart to safe mode nd undo what you did, or follow the steps I gave to zopzop in the very same thread.
