The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How to lock down USB ports

Asked by junior15 in General Computer Systems

Tags: usb, down, lock, ports

I've got some desktop comptuers that I need to lock down the USB ports on. I'm trying to keep people from being able to plug in a USB flash drive and copy files to it while still allowing use of USB peripherals such as keyboards, mice and printers.  I've run across SecureNT from Securewave (I think they call it Sactuary Device Control now) and DeviceLock, but my management has rejected those products so I need to come up with something else.  They have rejected these products for other than technical reasons so if I can find some other product(s) that performs the same functions, I will be very happy.

Thanks for any help.
