Executables

Here you can block application by the executable name or file info. For example, the following application name would be used to close the Internet Explorer when someone tries to open it: iexplore.exe. File info contains version and copyright information about the file (company name, product name, comments, etc..) To read file information, right click the file in Windows Explorer and select Properties\Details in Windows Viasta/7 or Properties\Version in Windows XP. For example, each software product created by Macromedia Inc. contains word Macromedia in file information. So, you can use the following string to disable the ability to open Macromedia software at all: *Macromedia*.

Tip: both file name and file info may contain * and ? wildcards. A question mark matches any single character. An asterisk matches any number of occurrences of that string followed by any characters.
