I didn't see anything mentioning "per user" there but rather it applied to
the "entire group", e.g. seemed again to be an all or none situation.
I don't understand. How do you specifiy restrictions etc. for just one
individual user rather than a whole group?
Couple of months of asking now and no-one has ever even given a hint how to
go about it!!!!
As I couldn't figure it out, I saw no reason to even bother keeping XP on
system as I basically had to keep it as open as 98SE anyway. There's
actually nothing "new" I could do.
In fact given the propensity for virus/worm writers etc. to target MS's
latest pile of bloat, it may now even be a safer environment :)

And how do you configure just that one user rather than the whole group they're in? I keep asking this question and have yet to get any kind of response on how to actually go about it. Seems to me everything revolves around "groups" and I've yet to find someway to indicate "just this user" that doesn't seem to require purchasing some 3rd party tool.
