More control over security features.
When in the Magic Desktop environment, several security features are used to lock the child within the program which is great. I'm not complaining, I love magic desktop BECAUSE it blocks the windows key and a thousand other things to ensure the child is safe and the computer is secure. However, it would be nice if every single security feature could be modified, so that a user could enable/disable specific ones individually according to need. I would like to be able to "alt-tab" out of the program to check on my work etc but leave all other security features enabled. My kids are no where near smart enough to figure out alt-tab.
Another solution to my problem would be to assign a multi-key combo 'hotkey' such as 'ctrl-alt-g' or 'ctrl-shift-alt-g' that would instantly minimize magic desktop.
The problem is, as it stands, the only way to switch back to normal function is A) Close and return to windows from Magic D's start menu. Or B) Use 'Parental Control', enter password and then select 'temporarily switch back to windows' & this choice usually requires exiting out of whatever game or program the kids are using (without being able to pause or save it) in order to get to a screen in which one is able to access 'Parental Controls'. So no matter what method I use, the kids lose everything they have been working on or playing which really sucks, because I generally only need the computer for 2-10 seconds every hr or so for work that can not be delayed, no matter how hard the kids have worked on something.
