Password Protection?

[Sveet 0]

Would it be possible to password protect my computer (like make the mouse and keyboard not function) so that nobody could use it? disabling the keyboard exept for a press like ctrl+/ or something? would this even be possible? would the scripts i have loaded still work?

If you are running NT, 2k or XP, try CTRL+DEL and choose the option Lock computer.

ctrl + alt +del or just ctrl + del?

edit:

the reason i wanted this is so no1 can get on my comp while im botting... my cousin went on it last night 20 min after i left, and closed it. i was gone for 4 1/2 hours, and all i got was a SC and 2 GC...

Howabout...

HotKeySet("[yourkey]","Unlock")
BlockInput(1)
While 1
  Sleep(5000)
WEnd

Func Unlock()
  BlockInput(0)
  Exit
EndFunc

One problem with it is that if you block the input, you can't type that hotkey.

You could put a time on it or something.

CTRL+ALT+DEL will give control back, but your cus might no that.

@scriptkitty: Is it possible to block all input except a pre-defined exit macro shortcut?

[scriptkitty 1]

Not that I know of,

Also, Block Imput acts differently depending on OS:

Operating System "BlockInput" Results

Windows 95 No effect.

Windows 98/Me User input is blocked but AutoIt is also unable to simulate input.

Windows NT 4 (Without ServicePack 6) No effect.

Windows NT 4 (With ServicePack 6) User input is blocked and AutoIt can simulate most input.

Windows 2000/XP User input is blocked and AutoIt can simulate most input.

There are other free programs that would solve this though, and possibly comand line driven.

%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation

works in XP for locking the PC. I've created a shortcut to this on my desktop, and set it to use a single key (the subtract (-) on the numpad) as it's shortcut key, so I tap one key and my PC's locked.

Sweeet...

Sounds good for some things, but when you do that Chris_1013, your screen comes up to the log in box.

I belive that he might be running a macro that uses GetPixelColor or active windows, in which the only active window would be WinLogon.

A great solution for some unattended backups and such, but might not be the best for a game script.

BTW, quick code for that would be:

run('cmd /c %windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation')

There is always the clearscreensaver from the Windows 2000 Resource Kit: Supplement 1. It locks the pc yet keeps the desktop visible.
