Question : Disable taking ownership of hosts file

Hi Experts,

I am running win xp prof sp2 and have two accounts on the pc. One Admin and the other one Power User. I would like to protect the Power user from taking ownership of the "hosts" file.
The problem is that the power user can make another limited account within win xp and take ownership from there.

Is there any way at all whatsoever, in which i can protect taking ownership of the hosts file.
Note: I cannot give the power user lower level permissions on the pc?

Regards,
Neville

Answer : Disable taking ownership of hosts file

Use DENY to prevent power users in the ADVANCED NTFS PERMISSIONS - NOT with A GPO but on the hosts file itself.
