MessageThat is a security feature which offers added protection from outsiders logging onto your computer from a remote location. Let's face it, we do not want un-authorized people tapping in where they do not belong. Most home users do not want to go through the added step, but those of us who are involved in networking can appreciate it. ----- Original Message ----- From: David Weddle To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, September 04, 2005 12:39 PM Subject: RE: Logging to a Computer Our computers at the California Department of Corrections and Rehavilitation are started the same way. As near as I can tell, the only reason is that some programmer somewhere decided it would be a good idea to use the control-alt-delete combination to get to the password/security screen in Windows Intranet systems and get to the Task Manager some other way. Just about any key combination could have been used. Take care...

The reason I'm questioning this matter it because that how our computer at Marriott have been configured which is how they were with Version 5 and before. Considering there are several of our scripts that aren't working properly could this have somethis to do with it or not? Your Friend Dave
