Disable Usb Ports: by Fisher666(m): 12:57am On Mar 31, 2009
Greetings fellow nairalanders,
can anyone help me, i have a little problem,
I have a laptop which i share at home with my family to use, The only problem is that they keep inserting Usb flash drives in it for documents and pics and songs etc, and as a result infecting my computer with virus all the time,
I would like to know if there is a way of disabling the Usb ports so that they cannot use any Usb device on my laptop,
Thank u,
Hope to hear from u guys soon,
Cheers
