Disable Ctrl Alt Del keys?

Hi,

This should do the trick, but it doesn't work in WinXP or Win2k. You could search at MSDN for other parameters which will disable them for these environments, I know there is one which will disable ALT-TAB and CTRL-ESC for sure, but I don't know if you can disable CTRL-ALT-DEL. I guess the best thing to do this is by filtering the Key combination with a system wide hook.

[tt]Private Declare Function SystemParametersInfo Lib "user32" Alias "SystemParametersInfoA" (ByVal uAction As Long, ByVal uParam As Long, ByVal lpvParam As Any, ByVal fuWinIni As Long) As Long

Private Const SPI_SCREENSAVERRUNNING = 97

Private Sub HideCtrlAltDel(ByVal fBool As Boolean)
Call SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SCREENSAVERRUNNING, IIf(fBool, 1&, 0&), 0&, 0)
End Sub[/tt]
