March 30, 2007 at 23:59How to protect your computer from children?
Does the child constantly press the CD-ROM tray open button? Knocks on the keyboard, sending abracadabra to your blog? Closes program windows, should you just look away?
The free program Toddler Keys can: disable the Power button;
lock the door of the CD-ROM drive;
lock the keyboard separately (you can continue to use the mouse, fighting off tenacious children's fingers :));
or block the entire computer.
IMPORTANT note: the program does not seem to know that there are other keyboard layouts, passwords are not entered in the Russian layout, and you can’t switch it, of course. Therefore, I recommend using numbers as passwords.
