[OPLINTECH] Solution for some flash memory drives not working on public computers?

[Phil Shirley]

With the security we have on our public computers, there are some flash 
memory drives that won't work.  Some of these want to run their own 
software, which doesn't work because we only allow the running of 
certain software that's installed on the computer (Word, etc.), and I've 
heard that even if we allowed the running of the applications on some of 
the popular flash drives by adding them to our "run only" entry, some of 
these programs would still have a problem because they want more access 
to the registry than we should give them.

Has anyone encountered and solved a similar problem with giving access 
to flash memory drives on public computers, or does anyone have any 
suggestions - perhaps at least a list of program names for these drives 
to add to my "run only" list?
