Catch all key strokes, and tell the movie to do nothing unless it's a
code you have specified?

Subject: <lingo-l> How Do Vandals Stop (break into) Kiosk Movies?

I have several retail displays that are running Director Projector 
Movies that have the TaskBar/Start Menu set so it does not stay on top 
of other programs and the Movie is set to full screen at 1024x768 
resolution on monitors set to 1024 x 768.

Somehow people are able to stop the demo loop and get to Windows. 

Are there security features of Projectors that make this less likely?  
How do you think people are accomplishing breaking in? 

Malicious pranks include deleting all folders from the hard drive and, a

new one today, putting a password on Windows so no one can get to the 
machine.  I know what to do to prevent that, and that is create a low 
level account for the account that runs the demo and then putting a 
password on the Adminstrator account.  I should have done that first, 
but I didn't think anyone could get in with nothing but a mouse 
connected to the computer with a full screen Projector running.

Any ideas will be most appreciated.

Thank you.
