IDEA: Netlocker

[Eye-R]

    Eh-up

  Just wunderin, is there not a lil proggie none o y'all knows 'bout, that upon a 'three-key-sequence'(ie: [ctrl] + [shift] + [end]) that'll disconnect all netwurk adapters, and disable them?

  an if not, would one o u kind chaps mind makey me one?

  It'd b quite nice if the sequnce whuz usr programmable, and also covered user specified programs in its envolope. but not essential.

  I'm lurnin c++, badly. else i'd 'ave a crack @ doing it meself... but i'm nowhere near that level yut...


  Ty in advance.


It is better tu remain silent, and be thought a phewl, than it is tu open yur mouth, and remove all doubt.

This exact request came up before and the suggestion was to install one of the firewalls with a quick BLOCKALL switch.
Zone Alarm has it, so does Outpost Agnitum.  Others too probably.  I think thats the easiest and best approach.

Maybe someone can find that old thread?

Hi Eye-R, welcome to the forum! We prefer regular English in here (hint: t3h d4rknezZ surR0unDz m3H ISN'T, neither "y", "r", "u", "ur", "wut", "wat", "ne1", "sum1" etc.), please no SMS-speak... for your other chats get:



And why are you using space at the beginning of your lines?

Try ToggleNic!

It's just a quick hack, using Windows' own network folder, but it works! I'm testing Vista, and I couldn't get the menu selction to work properly, but in XP you could remove the ; before WinMenuSelectItem and add a ; before Send.

Remember to change the nic= and hotkey= lines to match your system!

Code

;ToggleNic.ahk
; Use a hotkey to toggle your network cards' enabled state.
; Change the line nic= below to match the names of your network connections, separated by comma.
; Change the hotkey= below using !=Alt ^=Ctrl +=Shift or #=Win followed by any other key.
; For more advanced hotkeys, check the AutoHotkey help file.
