Windows XP SP2 Registry Keys for Student PCs

These are the registry keys I ZEN out to our student PC's (which is why they are a bit draconian) but so far, so good. I've tried to keep the format consistent where I can and add any notes. This isn't really a reg file, more my notes, but again, someone may find them useful!!!
