thats right ,but i want the total package,restrict access to the os,files and folders etc.this will be in a money making environment so am willing to cough up for a profesional looking set up.

theres a few that can fit on the front of the tower,and use up 3 or 4 drive bays,you can get usb units,and the one i'd almost decided on connects via com port.when the timer/money runs out,the mouse/keyboard are rendered useless.

Re: internet kiosk software

interesting question!

have look here - theres a selection of free internet cafe software. might be more complicated than you need but its a start.

its should include the kiosk type stuff you need to lock down the pc plus handl billing.

Re: internet kiosk software

2 of the best solutions are Site Kiosk and Smartlaunch, both are designed to run internet cafe kiosks and also coin op PCs.
