Now for the password. I think you could create a firewall that would deny any X11 packets for closing netscape. Then you could add some tool that would request a password, and if it finds it acceptable it would change the firewall rules to permit netscape "delete_event". You have a severe problem. You would need to read tons of documentation (esp. if you follow my suggestion). I would be curious to know if you succeed to solve it (and mostly HOW?).
