The most difficult part of developing a program is understanding the problem.
The second most difficult part is deciding how you're going to solve the problem.
Actually writing the program (translating your solution into some computer language) is the easiest part.
Please indent your code and use [HIGHLIGHT="VB"] [/HIGHLIGHT] tags around it to make it easier to read.

Re: Password for uninstall is it possible?
As I understand it, program removal is usually controlled by windows, not the app itself. You'd have to specify a custom uninstaller. You can't stop even a newbie deleting it in safe mode, or even from the command prompt option you get at boot-up. We all probably know someone who's formatted their HD unnecessarily because they couldn't figure something out something that's straightforward.
If you're an IT admin, I can understand why, but letting users make mistakes keeps the wages flowing... :-)
