I'm new to lansweeper Ive never used it before. I was wondering can you lock usb ports or stop users from using their dvd drives with it??

There is no built-in option for this, but you could probably create a deployment package to enforce this. A Google search will lead you to hundreds of articles on these topics. To lock down USB ports for instance, modifying the Start value in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\UsbStor appears to be an option, as outlined in Microsoft's knowledge base. This is something you could implement with a deployment package.
