Deleting files on USB sticks automatically on a Domain

by thestratocaster Sep 10, 2007 3:19PM PDT

Hi there,

I am a network admin for a school. We have a policy that no games are to be run on our system, or stored on our system. The students are very fond of bringing in Flash games. I have been asked to stop these from running on our system. Is there a way I can delete these files automatically as soon as the USB is inserted into a workstation? I found a group policy which enabled me to stop exe's running on the system, but I would like to be able to delete these files before they even reach our system. has anyone got any ideas?

Cheers
