[VB6] Making other Applications Invisible

[Psycho]

What if they just start pressing buttons and find your hotkey?

[Adron]

Or if the other person knows how to use Ctrl+Alt+Del

How would the other person knowing how to use ctrl+alt+del help them get past different windows user accounts for different people?

I think he meant closing the application keeping my things invisible :-P

It's possible, so I might add a password protect screen or require multiple hotkeys.

[Yegg]

Why not save up some money and buy your own computer Topaz?

[Topaz]

I have a computer, but it's back home. The laptop I brought with me doesn't have a wireless card.

If fast user switching is enabled, you can terminate processes of any user from task manager.

Mind uploading and/or sending me this? I could find it useful.

Logging in/out every time I get up would be a pain, and a waste of a good few seconds. I have my own computer in my room, and then there's a family one downstairs that my parents/sister use but my mom has gotten on mine occasionally and I'd prefer if I could do that while I'm at school and stuff just in case!

[Topaz]

Ugh - I just implemented the CTRL + ALT + DEL lock, but it only works when the window has focus. I might use windows rootkit to hide it in another process, but I'm not sure :-/

I don't think you can do that unless you're an admin.

[R.a.B.B.i.T]

O well, my accounts always have admin

I just unplug the monitor cord if I walk away or leave my computer alone.
Then they hold down the power button -__-

[Grok]

My computer's on pretty often, and I don't want siblings to be reading conversations with other people that I left open. (They tend to swear every fourth word) I just set it to hide all specified windows and the actual program itself. You can only revive it with a hotkey :-)

Or you could get new friends

Which is why YOU suck.

Haha, you only swear every fifth word ;p

My trouble is that my parents won't let me have the computer on for hours and hours, so I figured why not have a schedule but I am not completely sure if it's possible to turn a computer on and off without the use of BIOS.

[Topaz]

Why not use BIOS? Anyway, I finished the project. Should you want it, message me at Vesalius [email protected]
