One way to fix that. Do what I did in 1995 on a Win95
box where the soft power button was set in BIOS to
instant off (and unlike 98 it [EMAIL PROTECTED] obeys that
setting!). I took a disc spacer ring from a dead
5.25" MFM hard drive, a couple small bolts, spacers
and nuts then with a bit of work with a drill I
mounted
a power button guard on the case.

People sitting at that desk soon learned to keep their
knees away from the computer. :) The same thing could
be done easier with a couple of really small,
"tubular" style cabinet door pulls, one mounted on
either side of the button.
