Hi,
Here some Introduction about the Windows 7 AppLocker

Windows 7 addresses the growing desire for application control
solutions in the enterprise with the introduction of AppLocker: a
simple and flexible mechanism that allows administrators to specify
exactly what is allowed to run in their desktop environment. As a
result, AppLocker provides not only security protections, but also
operational and compliance benefits by:

* Keeping unlicensed software from running in your desktop
environment

* Preventing vulnerable, unauthorized applications from running in
your desktop environment, including malware

* Stopping users from running applications that needlessly consume
network bandwidth or otherwise impact the enterprise computing
environment

* Preventing users from running applications that destabilize their
desktop environment and increase helpdesk support costs

* Easing enterprise software deployments and maintenance through
effective desktop configuration management

* Allow users to install and run approved applications and software
updates based upon their business needs

* Helping ensure your desktop environment is in compliance with
corporate policies and industry regulations such as PCI DSS,
Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, Basel II, and others
