          Surprisingly, this is not possible with those exact three buttons. Vista will not allow anyone to prevent the system shutting down. I’ve had to cover these buttons.

          UPDATE: I’ve looked into this, and it turns out that you can go into Windows “PowerOptions” and change the option for “When The Power Button is Pressed – Do This” to “Do Nothing.” Maybe if I told the Parent that as the app starts up?

          There is a program called Toddler Keys by david.schaeffer@gmail.com that allows the power button to be disabled, but only in XP. It’s not otherwise as cool as BabySmash though, you can’t have it all !! but it would be great if BabySmash could do it.
          Also the power off action (when the power button is held for four seconds) cannot be disabled, or the alt-ctrl-del sequence :)

            If I made it so you could record your own, would you have the patience to do all the shapes, colors and letters?
