ExeLock -Password Protect Program

What is ExeLock -Password Protect Program?

ExeLock is an easy-to-use program that allows you to password protect programs and applications. Usually these files are stored on your system with the standard .exe type.

Resources:

1.     The protected exefile will still work well on a different machine.

2.     Safe and efficient.

3.     Do not run in the background to provide its functionality

Description:

If you share your computer with others, you may have some programs that you keep on your hard drive, but you don't want others to be able to run them. For example, you probably don't want someone else to run your tax preparation software, personal finance, or email programs. Kakasoft ExeLock is ideal in these situations because it allows you to password protect executables, so that only those who know the password can run the programs.

When protecting a program, Kakasoft ExeLock modifies the binary executable itself, so that it first requests 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 to hidden files or sectors. Also, it doesn't matter if you protect the program on the hard drive or on a floppy disk.

Kakasoft Exe Lock 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 protected, an attacker could simply kill the protection program or remove it from the startup group to disable the entire mechanism. Note that Kakasoft ExeLock protects programs, not icons, so that it remains locked, even if you run it from the common command line.
