It's bad idea to block the keys. You might be able to do this with JS, but it's not reliable. Why you need to block users opening pages in new window ?

All C# applications should call Application.Quit(); in the beginning to avoid any .NET problems.- Unclyclopedia My Website | Ask smart questions

Some of the financial applications expect this sort of weird behavior.You need to have yeoman patience and skillset to convince those dumb managers.

You may need to entrap the keycode for CTRL+N in keydown event and NULL it.

Yes. But a better approach would be the following. 1 - When user opens the page, we set a flag in DB 2 - Page load, this flag is checked to ensure only one page is running. 3 - When user finishes the operation, reset the flag. 4 - A scheduled job should run frequently which checks the flag value and the time it has started. if it is more than timeout limit, reset the flag. What do you think ?
