Can I configure Firefox to prevent users from accessing the computer hard drive?
Library patrons want to utilize Firefox in addition to Internet Explorer. We can configure IE to prevent users from accessing computer hard drives, i.e. typing c: in the URL; however, we cannot find how to do this using Firefox.
This happened
Every time Firefox opened
== Our library switched to IE, but patrons wanted to also continue to use Firefox

If the machines' security is properly configured, access to the file:// protocol shouldn't be a security issue.
If you really need to do this, you can use the BlockSite extension to block all URL's that begin with file:// . You can get this from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3145/ and protect the restrictions with a password.
