Is there a way to lock the mouse to a inputbox? Or just prevent any other windows/files being opened while its waiting for the input?

For the input box, I suggest using this:

$text = InputBox("test", "Please type in the secret code")
$bLoop = 1
While $bLoop = 1
    If $text = "secret code" Then
        $bLoop = 0
    Else
        $text = InputBox("test", "Please type in the secret code")
    EndIf
    Sleep(25)
WEnd

And you could use stuff like ProcessExists, ProcessClose, WinExists, WinClose, etc. Keep in mind that the end user will always be able close the script easily, if you are trying to create something malicious, stop right now.

_MouseTrap() can trap the mouse to specific coords.

*Huge eye* I swear I read all the commands many times and I never once saw that.

Anyways I ended up editing the code to were it didn't use a inputbox next time I'll use _MouseTrap() for sure.

Funny how the answers to things are always right in front of us... as much as I use AutoIt I get reminded sometimes daily reading other threads of functions I didn't even know existed, that would have saved me tons of time on ones I wrote that did the same exact thing.
