- Security program Launcher
-
- This program is a simple visual basic security program to stop most
- people from running selected programs under windows. To do this the
- programs are removed from the Program manager, access in the program
- manager is restricted, and the programs are launched with SECLAU which
- will ask for a password. Also the file command and the save settings
- command of the program manager will be turned off. This will not stop
- everyone, but it can prevent most and prevent accidents.
-
- Steps to using SECLAU:
-
- 1. Copy the files SECLAU.EXE, SECLAU.INI and VBRUN200.DLL
- to your windows sub directory. Place CHECKALT.EXE either
- in the root directory or somewhere in the path.
-
- 2. Remove the icons for the programs you wish to restrict
- access to from the program manager.
-
- 3. Place SECLAU.EXE on the program manager.
-
- 4. Use the maintenance section of SECLAU to Setup the
- programs you removed from the program manager. The
- maintenance section is command button driven and easy to
- use. Add all the programs you wish to restrict access to
- by typing in a description, program name with path and a
- password. The default MASTER password is PASSWORD. The
- master password may be changed from the maintenance screen.
-
- 5. Add the program CHECKALT.EXE to your autoexec.bat file.
- When it runs, the program will check to see if the control
- and alt keys are pressed. If they are not, it will add the
- following lines to the PROGMAN.INI file:
-
- [RESTRICTIONS]
- NoFileMenu=1
- NoSaveSettings=1
-
- This will disable the file option from the file menu. Users
- will not be able to run anything that is not already on the
- program manager. They will not be able to add or change any
- of the Icons or Groups on the program manager. The save
- settings on exit will also not be available. The program
- will not change anything else in the PROGMAN.INI file.
-
- CHECKALT.EXE displays a series of .'s on the screen as it
- runs. If you do press the control + alt keys, the
- restrictions section of PROGMAN.INI will be removed. If you
- don't want to use the CHECKALT.EXE program you can make the
- changes manually.
-
- 6. Reboot the computer.
-
-
- The Source code for these programs, a sample INI file and the EXE files and
- VBRUN200.DLL are included in the file WIN_SEC.EXE. Note: SECLAU.EXE is a
- Visual Basic version 2 program and CHECKALT.EXE was created with Basic PDS
- ver 7. This program is freeware. You are free to distribute and/or modify
- it as needed. The author assumes no responsibility for the use or misuse of
- this program. However, if it is useful to you, please let me know.
