This page offers the options for securing ActiveExit configuration from tampering with by the unauthorized users. Unless you use a dedicated security program such as Folder Guard to restrict user access to ActiveExit settings, the following options are recommended:

• Protect ActiveExit configuration with a password

  This option causes ActiveExit to protect its configuration settings with a password. To set up the password itself, click on the Set up the password button next to the option. You will have to enter this password every time you run the configuration utility of ActiveExit, or before you can uninstall or upgrade ActiveExit. This password is recommended to prevent unauthorized users from removing ActiveExit or tempering with its settings.

  Note that this password is case-sensitive. Note also that this password is different from the "Windows exit" password that you can set up using the Passwords page, although you can choose the same word or phrase for both of these passwords.

• Protect ActiveExit from manual deactivation

  If this option is selected, the user will not be able to deactivate ActiveExit manually (by modifying the entries in the system registry), no will s/he be able to stop ActiveExit by using Windows Task Manager or Ctrl+Alt+Del "Close Program" feature of windows. You would still be able to control ActiveExit using its configuration utility, or to uninstall it using the Setup.exe utility of ActiveExit. Note that if you change this option, the new setting will take effect only after you restart Windows.

• Protect ActiveExit settings in the registry

  (This option is not supported and not available on Windows 95).

  If checked, this option causes ActiveExit to protect its settings in the Windows registry from unauthorized changes with registry editing tools. You would still be able to modify the settings by using the configuration utility of ActiveExit. If you use a third-party tool for protecting the Registry, you may want to clear this option.
