- NoDisk is a TSR program that protects your hard disk from being
- written to. This means that no files can be altered or deleted. You can
- still run your programs from your hard disk. Any time a program attempts
- to write to your hard disk, NoDisk will beep and print the message
- !!!!! Hard Disk is write Protected !!!!!
- The application program trying to write to the hard disk will continue
- to run; however, NoDisk will no allow the application program to write
- to your hard disk.
-
- NoDisk can be installed several ways. By Typing NoDisk password,
- (password can be anything and is case sensitive) NoDisk can be turned on
- or off by typing NoDisk password. Each time NoDisk password is typed, the
- state of NoDisk will be toggled. This will allow you to disable NoDisk so
- that you can write to your hard disk. If you just type NoDisk (no pass-
- word specified), NoDisk will be permanently installed and cannot be turned
- off until you reboot your computer.

- There were several reasons for my writing NoDisk.
-
- 1) NoDisk can be installed on workstations which are shared
- by everyone. This enables a user to use the workstation
- freely and save his work on a floppy disk. However he cannot
- modify or delete any files on the hard disk. This can save
- you headaches from people trying to modify your hard disk files.
-
- 2) If you are doing classified work on a PC, NoDisk prevents
- you from accidentally saving your classified work on your
- computers hard disk.
-
- 3) If you do lots of assembly language programs, NoDisk prevents
- your program from writing to your hard disk. This could happen
- by accident when you are using system calls and do something
- strange by accident.
-
- 4) NoDisk can also be used to detect viruses in shareware
- programs. By installing NoDisk, the suspected program will
- not be able to write to your hard disk.

-
- NoDisk is not free software. It is distributed under the
- shareware concept. NoDisk can be distributed freely on a trial
- basis provided money is not charged and the program is not modified
- in any way. If you would like a registered copy of NoDisk send
- a check or company P.O. for $15 to:
-
- Nelson Lau
- 1553 Pele St.
- Honolulu, Hi 96813
-
- This will entitle you to a registered copy which does not have
- the built in delay menu. If you have any suggestions or questions
- please call (805) 989-9464.
