I'm trying to lock access to usb devices via this new GPO feature but I'm
only able to lock specific devices, with specific ID (every different device
has its own id) so I don't know how to lock whatever usb flash.
I know the .adm imported template solution
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555324/en-us/) but I think it's better with
the preferences way.
Regards.
