In answer to your question, no. I'm sure I'm stating the obvious, but Windows 9x is certainly not the platform for highly sensitive data. My advice would be to move the data to an NT-based (or other secure) operating system.

They need to be backed up automatically on a daily basis, but because the information on them is highly sensitive (we are a hospital) the desktop can not be left signed on 24X7. Even a password protected screen saver is not really acceptable as far as the data security people are concerned. If there a way to run the Windows 9X client and still have the PC not signed on? As a "service"? Thanks in advance Bill William Fitzgerald Software Programmer TSM Administrator Munson Medical Center [EMAIL PROTECTED]
