Disabling Control-C can be done in many ways as discussed in previous
messages (not qouted here). My solution is a devicedriver included in
CONFIG.SYS, which captures control before AUTOEXEC.BAT is read. The
device driver prompts for a password and if it's correct the devicedriver
unloads most of itself and booting continues. It's not a complete login/
password system like in Un*x, but it keep intruders (without their own
bootdisks) away. It is IMPOSSIBLE to boot from the harddisk without the
password, but again, a dosdisk can be used...

If someone would like a copy (including assembly source) please mail me,
and I'll send an uuencoded arc-file!
