[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1118740, member: 52014"] You're on the right track. Besides 'My Documents', you should also consider locking down 'Windows', 'Program Files', 'ProgramData', 'AppData', and 'Users' directories. These folders often contain system and application files that malware could potentially exploit. However, be careful as restricting access too much might cause system instability or software malfunctions. Always backup your data before making such changes. [/QUOTE]
