Introduction
KaKa ExeLock is a useful software, which allows
you to password protect Windows executable programs.
It works on the program files that are 32-bit Windows-9X/NT/2000/XP/ME
executables. Usually those files are stored on your system with
default .EXE file type.
If you share your computer with others, you might have a few
programs that you keep on your hard drive, but you do not want
other people be able to run them. For example, you probably do
not want somebody else to run your tax preparation software, personal
finance or email programs. KaKa ExeLock is ideal in these situations,
as it allows you to password protect executables, so that only
those who know the password will be able to run the programs.
When protecting a program, KaKa ExeLock modifies the binary executable
itself, so that it first asks for a password and runs the program
only if a valid password has been entered. It does not change
the Registry database, nor does it save the password in hidden
files or disk sectors. Also, it does not matter whether you protect
the program on your hard drive or a floppy disk.
KaKa ExeLock is safe and efficient. Unlike other protection software,
it does not run in the background to provide its functionality.
With the other software, which claims to be password protecting,
an intruder can simply kill the protection program or remove it
from startup group to disable the entire mechanism. Note, that
KaKa ExeLock protects programs, not icons so that it remains locked
even if you run it from plain command line.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will the protection still work if I copy the protected executable
file to a different machine?
A: Yes, the protection will still work fine.
Q: After I protected an executable, what should I do if my antivirus
software shows that it has been infected by a virus?
A: Do not panic. KaKa ExeLock is not a virus. Antivirus software
is correct in detecting that the executable file has been changed.
However, this change adds the password checking functionality
of KaKa ExeLock and does not spread as a virus would
