Do you mean restarting the machine or killing explorer.exe? Regarding 
reboot I don't know whether rebooting can be prohibited (I believe it 
can, but I'm not sure), but explorer.exe can be killed for sure, as 
every user has his own instance of explorer.exe running and every user 
can kill his own processes (including said explorer.exe).
