Not tested on NT4 or Win2000. Most likely problems: NoDelete is made as a "Service" and is hidden from Task-View (CTRL+ALT+DEL), whether NT/Win2000 supports it as easy as Win95/98
due to its own file-protection system, I don't know. I would be really grateful if someone
can e-mail me to tell me if it works on NT/2000. Please do! (Carl.Harrison@btinternet.com)

NoDelete has NO WARRANTY WHATSOEVER. USE IS ENTIRELY THE USERS RESPONSIBILITY AND LIABILITY.

SO WHAT DOES NODELETE DO???
---------------------------
NoDelete protects any file (upto 510 of them) with one of 3 protection options (you
can control each file and protected by what method...):
1 - The file can be read and modified, but it cannot be deleted/renamed or moved.
2 - The file can be read but cannot be modified/deleted/renamed or moved.
3 - The file cannot be read or copy/modified/deleted/renamed or moved (total-protection)
Whilst the NoDelete main-screen is visible, the files in the list are NOT protected.
Only when NoDelete is invisible and the NoDelete icon is in the tray are the files
listed, protected.
Password Protection : You can set password protection on/off with a password of your choice.
FOR BEST PROTECTION
-------------------
Protect the shortcut to NoDelete in your StartMenu/Startup.
Also protect the NoDelete.exe itself along with the Protected.Dat to stop people:
1 - Deleting the shortcut, thus preventing users from stopping NoDelete from starting up.
2 - Deleting or Modifying the NoDelete.exe itself
3 - Deleting or Modifying the list of protected files.
Then password protect it by using the Menu Option in NoDelete. You will be required
to enter a password and then verify it. Make sure you do not forget your password. If you
do forget, the password is held in the Windows Registry, under Current User/software/
VB and VBA Programs\NoDelete\Pass\Word2\ - Your password is held in the value here.
Use RegEdit or similar program to access registry - only "play" with the registry if you
KNOW what you're doing, if not, you could end up screwing Windows and having to reinstall
everything. You have been warned! - Just don't forget your password!
EACH individual file dropped into the NoDelete Protection list can be INDIVIDUALLY set
to any of the 3 protection modes available, giving much more flexibility and control over
how each file can be protected rather than the full-list all using the same protection.
For example, the following table will help you increase the Protection on your computer
from (1) hackers or non-authorised personnel from being to access certain files chosen by
yourself (2) Additional Virus protection (protect EXE's/VBS/COMs from being modified
