Password protect program files with ExeLock

KaKa ExeLock is a useful software, which allows you to password protect Windows executable programs. It works on the program files that are 32-bit Windows-9X/NT/2000/XP/ME executables. Usually those files are stored on your system with default .EXE file type.

If you share your computer with others, you might have a few programs that you keep on your hard drive, but you do not want other people be able to run them. For example, you probably do not want somebody else to run your tax preparation software, personal finance or email programs. KaKa ExeLock is ideal in these situations, as it allows you to password protect executables, so that only those who know the password will be able to run the programs.

When protecting a program, KaKa ExeLock modifies the binary executable itself, so that it first asks for a password and runs the program only if a valid password has been entered. It does not change the Registry database, nor does it save the password in hidden files or disk sectors. Also, it does not matter whether you protect the program on your hard drive or a floppy disk.

KaKa ExeLock is safe and efficient. Unlike other protection software, it does not run in the background to provide its functionality. With the other software, which claims to be password protecting, an intruder can simply kill the protection program or remove it from startup group to disable the entire mechanism. Note, that KaKa ExeLock protects programs, not icons so that it remains locked even if you run it from plain command line.

Features:

Not change the size of protected file.

Not change the icon of protected file.

The protected exefile will still work fine in a different machine

Safe and efficient.Not run in the background to provide its functionality

OS Supported: Windows 2003/XP/2000/NT/ME/98

Frequently Asked Questions:

Will the protection still work if I copy the protected executable file to a different machine?

Yes, the protection will still work fine.

After I protected an executable, what should I do if my antivirus software shows that it has been infected by a virus?

Do not panic. KaKa ExeLock is not a virus. Antivirus software is correct in detecting that the executable file has been changed. However, this change adds the password checking functionality of KaKa ExeLock and does not spread as a virus would.

So our advice: do not leave home without the Shake Torch in your glove box or travel bag. And the reason? Simple: You shake the Shake Torch for approximately 45 seconds. And it gives you light for approximately 5 minutes. No batteries needed. Ah yes, eco-friendly and lasts forever. Very handy indeed.

Shake powered Torch

Now for the science: the Shake Torch has a large magnet inside it. This sits within a conducting coil. As the torch is shaken, the magnet moves back and forth generating an electrical current. This current is then transferred to a holding cell which retains it and enables you to use the torch even if it has not been shaken for some time. You can even see the workings of the torch for yourself because it is made from semi-translucent shock resistant plastic. But that's not all. The Shake Torch uses an LED light rather than a bulb. LED light is both ultra-efficient and everlasting. Which means, no spare bulbs needed either. Ingenious, wouldn't you agree?

Get Best results in Google using Wildcards-Google Tips

A wildcard in a Google search query can be indicated by an asterisk (*), and will match one or more whole words.

Example: A search for [ cooking * classes ] will return results for all of the following phrases (and more):

"cooking school classes" "cooking and tasting classes"

One common use of the asterisk is to fill in the blanks for a query that answers a question: [ the parachute was invented by * ]. Also, you can use more than one asterisk in a single search, such as [ vitamin * is good for * ].

Wildcard searches work for whole words or phrases only. Currently, Google doesn't support searches in which an asterisk indicates a fraction or extension of a word, for example, [ flower * classes ] won't match "flowerful classes."

However, Google do use stemming technology — when appropriate, Google will search not only for your search terms, but also for words that are similar to some or all of those terms, for example, if you search for [ pet lemur dietary needs ], Google will search for the term and also other related variations of your terms.

How does Google Web Search work+Search Tips

Google visits and reads public web pages. Google take a snapshot of each page Google visit. These snapshots are called cached copies. When you search, Google's automated program finds the pages that are most relevant to your search terms and shows those pages to you.

How do I use Google Web Search?

Using Google can be as easy as typing a word or phrase into the Google search box and clicking either the Google Search or I'm Feeling Lucky button (Pressing "I'm Feeling Lucky" button in Google search page takes you straight to the most relevant website that Google found for your query. You won't see the search results page at all, but if you did, the "I'm Feeling Lucky" site would be listed on top). To make the most of your Google search, here are a few tips for choosing search terms that will return the most relevant results. Click any of the tips to read more about them:

Use keywords to search: You'll find the most accurate results by typing words or short phrases - rather than full sentences and questions - into the search box.

Example: If your question is "Can I take my dog with me on my trip to London?" good search terms might be:

[ dog travel London ] [ dog airline London ] [ pet flying ]

Choose keywords carefully and enclose exact phrases in quotation marks: The best search terms are descriptive and specific. Enclosing a few or all of your keywords in quotation marks can help you locate webpages that contain an exact phrase, such as a person's full name, a book title, or song lyrics.

Example: If you're in need of a recipe for cake with a very specific type of frosting, you might perform the following search:

[ recipe cake "toasted coconut frosting" ]

Assigning a Password to user account in Windows XP

Unless they are protected by passwords, accounts listed on the Welcome page can be opened by anyone simply by clicking on them. Passwords help ensure information that you keep on the computer stays private and secure. By controlling access to your user account with a password, no one but you (and holders of computer administrator accounts, if yours is a limited account) can view or alter data in the account.

If you are the only holder of a computer administrator account for a shared computer, protecting the account with a password is especially important to prevent accidental or unauthorized changes to important system-wide settings and application software.

To protect a computer administrator account with a password:

create Password to user account in Windows XP

  1. Click Start, and then Control Panel.

  2. Click User Accounts.

  3. Under or pick an account to change, click the name of your account.

  4. On the What do you want to change about your account page, click Create a password.

  5. In the Type a new password box, type a password. In the Type the new password again to confirm box, type the new password again. If you want a reminder in case you forget your password, type a hint for yourself in the Type a word or phrase to use as a password hint box, and then click Create Password.

If you hold a limited user account, you can change your password by following steps 1 and 2 above, then:

  1. Under or pick an account to change, click your password-protected account.
  2. On the What do you want to change about your account page, click Change my password.
  3. In the Type your current password box, type your password. In the Type a new password box, type a new password for your account. In the Type the new password again to confirm box, type your new password again. If you want a reminder in case you forget your password, type a hint for yourself in the Type a word or phrase to use as a password hint box, and then click Change Password.

If you're a party of one - sole owner and user of a computer - you might still want to set up your computer with user accounts, naming you as computer administrator and protecting the account with a password. Doing so prevents casual access to the system by others if you leave your computer unattended while logged onto Windows XP, provided you log off from your account. For added security, disable guest access.

To Disable Guest access:

Click Start, and then click Control Panel.

Click User Accounts.

Under or pick an account to change, click Guest.

On the What do you want to change about the guest account page, click Turn off the guest account.

Types of User accounts in Windows XP

User Accounts offers personalized settings and preferences for everyone who uses the computer. There are three types of user accounts:

1. Computer Administrator account:

This allows the holder unlimited power to modify the computer in any way, and - importantly - to view and alter the contents of all other accounts. Generally, only one user of a shared computer holds a computer administrator account - the boss! A person with a computer administrator account can, among other things:

Create and delete other user accounts on the computer. Change any user's account name, picture, password, and account type. Install and uninstall software and hardware. Change all system-wide settings.

However, the holder of a computer administrator account cannot change his or her account type to any other unless at least one computer administrator account remains. This ensures there is always someone able to fully operate the computer.

2. Standard account:

This account type is available only to users of Windows XP Professional using computers in a domain environment. With a standard account, a user can:

Install and uninstall software and hardware, provided doing so does not alter computer settings restricted by the holder of a computer administrator account. Create, change, or remove the account password. Change the account picture.

3. Limited account:

Assigning limited user accounts is an effective way to prevent inexperienced or unauthorized users from changing computer settings or deleting important files. Holders of limited accounts can only:

Create, change or delete their account password. Change their account picture.

Guest access:

The guest access feature of Windows XP allows someone who is not a regular user of the shared computer to operate it as if he or she holds a limited account. Guest access is not protected by a password. Using Guest access makes it easy for visitors to log on quickly to check e-mail, browse the Internet, write and print documents, and perform similar activities.
