I am not sure whether this is the right newsgroup to post this message, but
I looked around at the different newsgroups Borland has and nothing else
seemed appropriate. If I have chosen the wrong newsgroup I apologize.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

I have an application developed in BC++ 5.02, using MFC 4.1 and runs mainly
in Windows XP. I need to disable the keyboard, to be more concrete I need to
disable keystrokes such as ctrl-alt-del, alt-tab, alt-esc.

What I have tried is to set a CBT hook procedure and in there remove what
seemed relevant HCBT_SYSCOMMAND Windows messages, but I have had no success.
The best I have done is disable the Microsoft key.

The CBTProc I place in a dll and I check every system call to ensure that
they succeed. Ie. I make sure that the dll is loaded correctly, that the
address of the CBTProc is obtained correctly, etc.

If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.

Once again thanks

Jesus
