FullscreenBrowser with Lock 1.0.0.5 (Win2000 or higher)

Description:
Starting with version 3.5.5 ContaCam ships with a light version of FullscreenBrowser which is not disabling Ctrl+Alt+Del. Here you can download the full version which is running as administrator and locks in fullscreen mode disabling Ctrl+Alt+Del with various registry settings to avoid that a surveillance operator exits the FullscreenBrowser without knowing the password.
Note: this file will probably be detected as Task Disabler virus because it uses the same technique to disable the task manager as some viruses do. This file is not a virus, it's just that the anti-virus programs are not always that smart to distinguish genuine programs from viruses.
Installation: overwrite the file found in the ContaCam installation folder with this one.

4.3.0 (February 12th 2013)
- Split the 'Other HTTP Device' mode in Server Push and Client Poll
- Swf snapshot history file is now correctly created even if restarting ContaCam (snapshots preceding restart are not lost)
- In Device Assistant added a button to move the camera folder; under Tools menu there is the possibility to move all camera folders in one command
- Live snapshot names can now be configured
- Increased support from 15 to 100 DirectX devices
- In log messages the user assigned device name is now shown
- For microapache set MaxKeepAliveRequests to 0 (=No Limit) to avoid frame jumps which were happening when the keep alive request count reached 0 and a reconnection was necessary
- Longer detection files option introduced in version 4.0.5 is now always on
- Removed UDP networking because it was ContaCam's proprietary streaming protocol not compatible with any current standard (it's still possible to stream a video source through the web server, a FAQ entry has been added illustrating that)
- Removed manual record pause command which was of no use
