Ctrl + Alt + Del

[Malcolm Turnbull]

AAhh I see !

You can't press CTRL-ALT-DELETE... you need to press the "SEND
CTRL_ALT-DELETE" button !

Regards,
Malcolm.

Yeah - im not that bothered about it working or not working once it has
logged
on - its just to be able to log on this needs to be done.  Which is a bit of
a
blow.

Thats all fair enough - its just other similar programs I have seen the
ability to 'send' the ctrl-alt-del to the machine.

Nothing similar in this like a Ctrl-F1 code???  Maybe I could suggest it to
the developers?

Not that I want to much from a free program though :-)

Thanks for your help
