- Does anyone know of commercial or P.D. software that would prevent
- booting a PC unless a password id keyed in? The purpose is to restrict
- PC booting for those PC that have no EPROM passwrd nor a key switch.
-
- I know, I know, that would not prevent an intruder to boot the PC
- from a floppy, but hey ... that's better than nothing at all!
-
- Let me know either by e-mail or posting
