Hi
I have developed a kiosk booking application using Visual Basic 2005
Express Edition, the application is running on windows XP .NET runtime
2.
One of the end users is able to terminate the application but I am not
sure how to prevent this. The PC has security software disabling Crtl
+Alt+Delete, so it is not that.
Are there any keyboard commands that could be used to kill the
application or .NET? Or is it more likely that the user is leveraging
a bug in the application. What sort of things might cause it to
terminate?
Any comments welcome.
cheers dave
Hi,
There are some 3rd party softwares for killing processes because of
this kind of security privilege issues. You can take a look at these:
http://www.beyondlogic.org/solutions...rocessutil.htm
which does the job through command line, once you know the correct
command line syntax you can integrate it into your code with "Shell"
support in vb.net
or this external software:

I recommend you to search Google with keyword "process killer" or
"kill process" etc...
And for some virus / trojan / security issues, task manager may be
locked / inaccessible. You can re-enable with tweaking registry:

Hope these help.
