Hi,

The program is great, and I have some suggestion to improve it.


1. Password protection - to make the program request a password on start-up
2. Automatic lockout - Program will lock it's self after x amount of minutes
3. New dynamic information - %IP to the server the program connected
4. Ballon tips - when the program is minimized or in tray, to pop-up ballon when servers are being disconnected or
connected

Out of curiosity why would you want the application to lock and password protection? The passwords are encrypted anyway and you should lock your computer if your are going to step away.

LOL I asked the same question when he emailed me. He had a great reason I never thought of: The RD machine is "public" at his company (think: kiosk mode) and he wants to be able to protect his favorites from other users who would be using the same user account. RD Tabs' security is tied to the user profile (as Mr. Gates intended), but that's not good enough in this situation. The good news is that RemoteSync will basically take care of most of that problem by protecting favorites with a "master password" upon request. This won't protect the app during execution, however (no way to "lock" the app). I think there are more pressing feature requests right now, but I'm going to ponder over it to think of a good way to do this. Just putting a "lock" on the windows doesn't really do much since the user will have the right to terminate the app, restart it, etc.
