OK, Tell me is there any other utilities of using the USB port on ur clients? You can deny access to USB port. But it depends on OS, how u will do it? Which OS u r using? :confused:

if the users bring flashdrives and introduce viruses to your network, try panda antivirus. the only other way is to disable USB port.

If you just want to block user from downloading information from pc,you may just disable write access properties for USB port by using system Registry.Or if you want block user from accessing USB for any purpose, you may also using registry or policy setting. I am just using registry for block user from access usb port:) Hope this help
