To disable the Address Bar from being shown, set the NoAddressBar value to 1
Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbars\Restrictions

To prevent the user from enabling the Address bar, set NoBandCustomize value to 1
Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

I have been preparing a group policy on a Win2K server to lock down Win 2K
and XP workstations when using Internet Explorer.  I can prevent someone
from using the "Open" option on the IE drop down menu, but I can't find a
group policy option to turn off the address bar.  I find it difficult to
imagine that as powerful as group policies are, that the option does not
exist.  Does anyone know where the option to turn off or disable the address
bar is????
I hate to think about having to turn it off on each individual workstation
and not being able to do it thru a group policy.
Thanks so much for your help,
