Security Issue

[BnL]

I have a lingering security issue with a db that I have
secured over a network. I have a shortcut set up to point
directly to the db that works fine with user logins.
However, there are a couple of PC's that were used during
testing phases that will still allow a user to double
click on the db and open it. If I delete the .MDW file on
the individual PC's C: drive, it won't allow any other
db's to be accessed accept for the one over the network.
Anyone have an idea of how to solve this issue? Thanks in
advance!

The PCs used during testing are likely joined by default to the secured mdw.
Use the workgroup administrator (Tools, security) on those machines to join
them back to the default system.mdw (usually in the windows system folder).
Then they should have to use the shortcut to start the mdb.

If however, they are able to double click the db and open it while joined to
the standard system.mdw, then you missed a step in securing it.
