If you write a little program which intercepts to Ctrl-Break (Ctrl-C)
handler as a device driver and have it included in the Config.Sys file,
no user would be able to stop the machine with a ^C. Well, at least I
think, I didn't test it. Anybody volunteering to write it ? :-)

And, make sure your computer doesn't have a floppy drive or some user
will walk in with his own boot floppy :-(
