Its there a way to disable ctrl-alt-del ?
abispac:
I just finished building my jukebox and it really looks nice and i love the software, and thanks to this forum i found the way to use windows7 and hide'it which it makes it looks bad ass at boot time,everything works flawless, but i need one last piese which i cant find a solution for on the net. The software has an option to connect an external USB memory, so people can download certain content, so no problem there, the thing is i don't want anyone hooking up a USB keyboard and be able to search for stuff , therefore they can get inside the system via the alt-crtl-del to bring up the task manager.
Its there a way to change that key combination to something else?
i though about autohotket but since the juke software its shelled it wont give autohotkey a chance to start. am i right?
thanks for any help.
Edit:
How do the kiosk computers disable such thing? and it needs a way to be able to use the task manager with a secret combination when giving maintanance

There is a Windows "kiosk mode" that has features like that. You will need Windows7 professional to set it up.
Maybe this is an option? http://www.northcode.com/blog.php/2007/07/25/Securing-Windows-For-Use-As-A-Kiosk
Be sure to set up automatic logon (or the requirement to press CTRL+ALT+DEL before login) or you won't be able to login at all after that change. Note: I haven't tested this, use at your own risk :-)

That was my thought as well.
