Hi,
Adding Some informtaion to Tedbilly, Where you created a Permission Levels ? Is it in your SharePoint web application level ? If So, Those will not be applicable. But you can change the Permission levels Like the attached Image (Changing the permission of Shared Services Rights).
Thanks.
SSP Rights
Permissions have been made in site level. I've like to use those rights for all users, now it affect only that one where permissions are modified.
Can you tel me some more info about SSP rights, and how they change rights to mysite?
all that I need is that when user creates mysite, he will not be owner, only normal user and that site actions cant be selected or page modified, like add webparts or remove those what are in the page.

If you want to restrict what people can do with their 'My Site' here is one option provided by Microsoft.
http://office.microsoft.co
Otherwise your other choice is to change settings in the http://<YourSSPAdministrati
Otherwise, you might be able to customize the template used to generate a 'My Site' but that's a very advanced task.
Well back to my original comment. Sharepoint designed the 'My Site' functionality so the users are automatically site owners of the 'My Site' collection created on their behalf. Because the user triggers the creation of the 'My Site' when they attempt to access it the first time they MUST be site administrators for their own site. So, you either have to use the personal pages or use the 'My Sites' as is.
I've have seen sites that have mysite and users are not owners, or thay have been restricted some how to modify webparts or any Site settings. That is what I need and it can be done some how.
Now we are using simple solution, I removed Site Setting from the masterpage in Sharepoint Designer. But that wont help for the webparts. Some users keep "loosing" some webparts from they site. They just close them.

The original intent of the 'My Site' was full control for each user so I'm not sure it's possible to change this. It is possible to write Sharepoint console applications using the Sharepoint API (they have to execute on a Sharepoint farm member server) to iterate through the 'My Sites' using the ProfileManager to change settings.
