Hi William,

last year I've done a museum project where I had to put pc's into kiosk mode. 
Unfortunately the rawKeyDown approach didn't work since you can't capture key 
combinations like CTRL-ALT-DEL etc. The only way I could find was changing the 
registry. 
On the other hand, I seem to remember that Director offers an option to run 
applications in true kiosk mode. So what you are looking for should be possible 
in some way or another.

Kind regards,
Henk
