    VC won't cut it, it only supports 256 color images. I have zero skill in graphics, so someone else will have to recommend a good graphics program for making 32-bit icons. --Mike-- My really out-of-date homepage He who laughs last, didn't get the punchline and is just laughing so he won't look silly.

    Hello Leo, There is a very good article by Ton Plooy in the February 1998 edition of the Windows Developers' Journal. The title is : "Scanning Internet Ports". A sample program with full source codes is also given. The following is the link to the article : http://www.wdj.com/articles/1998/9802/9802b/9802b.htm?topic=articles I believe the sample program will be perfect for you. Best of luck. Regards, Bio.

    Ops. Sorry about the misreading.. Anyway, I think Microsoft has provided some kind of Hotfix to turn LM authorization off if you don't need it. Check the sequrity site for that. Still don't know if there is a way to increase password length.. /moliate /moliate

    Create a new user on the computer with limited security. from your administrative account, remove read access from taskmgr.exe. This will prevent the task manager from coming up. There are ways of securing the rest of the 2K C+A+D screen like lock computer with the policy editor. I also have a kiosk program running on XP now, and a locked down user account is the best option. XP is nice because I can use terminal service into the admin account, and let the system auto-logon to the limited account. Telnet and a collection of WSH scripts is also very VERY useful for when you dont want to inturupt the main screen, which terminal services does.
