Disabling the Options button in the Connection Details dialog

[Erik Soderquist]

personally, we use preconfigured config files for the machines we
connect to. (we are using version 3.3.7) I've included a sample here,
the "restricted=1" line disables changes while the viewer is running.
this also connects without prompting for a host name or password. the
password is store in some kind of encrypted form, so unless the user
knows the password already, or can crack the hashed version here, the
user has no choice but to use the config file to connect. in this
example, the hash here is for the word 'temp' as the password.

Subject: Disabling the Options button in the Connection Details dialog

Is there a way to disabling the Options button in the Connection Details
dialog? I currently launch the viewer from the command line as follows:

C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\Viewer.exe SendPointerEvents=0 SendKeyEvents=0
MenuKey=

and I would prefer the user not be able to change these options simply
by clicking on the Options button in the Connection Details dialog. Any
ideas?
