Hi Guys Back in the day someone, I think it was Jan B, posted to the list a single file executable that was a Popup to prevent a user from running a program. I can't find it in my massive archive of files. The idea of the program was that it was just a simple executable that you renamed to the the programs executable filename; and replaced the file, that you did not want the user to be able to run. When the user tried to run the program they would get a popup box telling them that it wasn't allowed instead of the program running. I am sure that I probably posted this for download someplace out there on the web... but I am sorry Dave...my mind is going. Clues anyone? Jim Kenzig http://www.kenzig.com
