johnney Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share Posted April 29, 2007 That should've been mentioned in the OP. You posted in the WinXP forum, which is why several of us said not to make them admins. I didn't do that because in fact I use two computers: one at work, using XP, and one at home, obviously less powerful, using Win98. I primarily needed the programs for XP. Dexter did a good job and they successfully work on both systems. By the way, I tried again doing that thing with guest user accounts in XP. There was an option for "limited" account, which I selected (they said choosing that will prevent the user installing programs, deleting other user accounts and so on). Well, it's either that my computer doesn't obey, or I don't make the necessary settings, but I was still able to instal programs after logging as a "visitor" user.

johnney Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share Posted April 29, 2007 Dexter, congratulations, the programs works great . Tested on Win98, and doesn't make problems. I'll see how it reacts on XP, because I tried something just for a check, and when I Ctrl+Alt+Delete in Win98, and lists the active programs, one of them in the list is SUB, under this name. I was expecting to be listed as svchost.exe, as the actual name. I was thinking someone knowing a little about how computers work, could realize that SUB program is the guilty one and could try and deactivate it. Maybe in XP it is listed as svchost.exe. I'll see exactly on Wednesday, when I go to work and test it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[deXter] Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 ^ Thanks again for your inputs. SUB showing up as SUB in the task list is impossible - I didn't even use the "SUB" name anywhere in the program! I think you could may be seeing the process of the zip file, which is the only file that's called SUB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right I just realized that the unzipped folder was open when I did that. No wonder it was listed. Edited April 30, 2007 by johnney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcemanND Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 is there a way to set the white/black list settings unattendedly?And is there a way to get it to work with browsers other than IE? Worked great with IE, didn't even slow Firefox down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worked great with IE, didn't even slow Firefox down.Yes, just backup the keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group PolicyAnd I meant it to be used only for IE because Firefox and other browsers already have good built-in alert-free site filtering.

A one stop shop would be nice but not required. Nice work by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
