ActiveScreenLock
2.8 is a software that gives computer users
a secure and reliable way to protect their computers from
unauthorized access. The idea behind the software is simple
but ingenious - the program simply adds a password-protected
window placed on top of all the others. In order
to remove it, a correct password needs to be entered.
Key combinations Alt+F4, Ctrl+Alt+Del, Alt+Tab, and WinKey
are blocked. The program keeps a log of all invalid
access attempts and wrong passwords entered. The blocking
window can be activated by clicking program's icon or after
computer being idle for a set period of time. The program
is also capable of hiding mouse cursor, disabling
task manager, and it runs automatically if the
computer is reset.
Also, there is an option to create a lock screen
slideshow by simply indicating a folder that contains
the desired images.
ActiveScreenLock has received dozens of awards, including
Editor's Choice at TopShareware and FileHeaven, and 5-star
rating at Softpicks, Shareup, FileTransit, SmartDownloads,
and UKwares. Also, the program comes with full install/uninstall
support and can be easily mastered by users with any skill
levels, since it requires no special knowledge.
