What operating system are you using? Windows? As I understand it, you can't block, modify, or otherwise access Ctrl-Alt- Del while running under Windows: it is the "Secure Attention Key", and is designed to be virtually impossible to interfere with. It's not *quite* impossible, but it is the deepest, darkest black magic. Microsoft makes it close enough to impossible as makes no difference even for experienced developers. As a newbie, well, put it this way: it's like somebody saying "Hi guys, I have a shiny new Swiss Army Knife, the one with the screwdriver and the corkscrew. I'd like to build my own Space Shuttle -- what do I do?" http://stackoverflow.com/questions/886076/how-can-i-intercept-all-key-events-including-ctrlaltdel-and-ctrltab http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-Alt-Delete You should also read this: http://blogs.msdn.com/oldnewthing/archive/2004/02/16/73780.aspx -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
