Thanks for your reply. I followed your advice and was able to run the vbs as admin but still the blockinput part was ignored, so I guess inside the vbs I would have too call autoitx as admin too, but wasn't able too work this out. Since the part I needed the Blockinput function for wasn't very complex I decided now to write it directly in autoit so I can run the compiled .exe as admin, which worked fine. Greetz, Fred

OS: Win 7 (admin possible); autoitx: v3.3.0.0 Hi there, I have a vbscript which connects via telnet to a server. Then some commands are send using SendKeys. During this time I want to block mouse and keyboard input (for about 20 seconds), because the window focus may not be changed. On XP this was no problem using autoitx3 and blockinput, but win7 doesn't accept blockinput. I read it's because of safety settings/lack of rights (...) in win7/vista, but I can't run a *.vbs as admin (also tried by runas in cmd). Is there no workaround or maybe an alternative approach to the problem? Since I spend hours searching for a sollution but am still running in circles I would really appreciate some advise.
