Kid-Key-Lock

Kid-Key-Lock is a program that can be used to disable specific keyboard and mouse keys.

Kid-Key-Lock's purpose is to prevent toddlers from accidentally pressing unwanted buttons and key-combinations on your keyboard and mouse. It is ideal to be used when you surf the internet with your kids, play flash games, videos, or simply teach them to use the mouse, paint images on the sceen, etc. At the same time, you don't want the kids to mess with the right mouse button, double clicks, system keys, key combinations (windows key, alt-tab, alt-F4), etc

When Kid-Key-Lock is running, an indicator icon apears on the windows tray. When you click on the tray icon a pop-up menu will appear. All program functions, including the setup dialog box are accessible from this menu.

The program works on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista and the beta version of Windows 7.
