New Features in Version 6

Auto shutdown and logoff solution for unattended computers

Screen Pass is an auto shutdown and auto logoff software that extends the capability of the standard workstation lock and gives administrators complete control over idle workstations.
I think that every network administrator on my base could use Screen Pass... I like everything about it, especially because now I don't have to worry about people being logged on to the network for too long. I just set Screen Pass up for the amount of time that I want, and it reboots

Features
Enforce password security
Enforce password security using auto logoff software.
After Screen Pass is installed on a workstation, the user is prevented from turning off the password protection for the screen saver. In addition, the administrator has control over the screen saver timeout period by enforcing maximum and minimum timeouts and control over the screen saver grace period, the time after which the screen saver becomes active and before the workstation becomes locked.
Unlock workstations with 'true' administrator override
Unlock workstations with true administrator override using our auto logoff solution.
An administrator can enter his or her ID and password to unlock the workstation. Note that that with Screen Pass the workstation is simply unlocked; the existing logon session is not terminated. This differs from the standard functionality in the Windows where the current user is logged off, unsaved application data is lost, and the administrator is logged onto a new session.

Although Screen Pass can be configured to work with any screen saver, it includes the Bouncing Image screen saver, which displays a bouncing image on the screen. By default the bouncing image is a combination lock. The user may select an alternative Image using the Screen Pass Bouncing Image dialog which is accessible from the Display Properties dialog. Supported formats are .BMP, .GIF, .JPG, .ICO, .EMF, and .WMF. The administrator can specify the default image and all allowed images. The allowed images are identified by filename (including the path) or by directory in which case all images in the directory are allowed.
