I think the problem is precisely that nothing happens! Consider a naive (stupid?) user who thinks that Ctrl-Alt-Del shuts down the system so they can turn it off. So they hit Ctrl-Alt-Del, nothing happens, they turn it off. Lose, lose. Or are we assuming that users aren't *that* stupid? -- Kai Grossjohann, Informatik VI [EMAIL PROTECTED] Uni Dortmund, D-44221 Dortmund http://ls6-www.cs.uni-dortmund.de/ Vox +49 231 755 5670, Fax -2405 I like both kinds of music. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
