Hi,

I want to block a serial port, to prohibit my employees to use the Internet via a serial port modem.

Is there an easy way to do this in VB, maybe using a special control like mscomm ???

Thanks in advance,

Dominique
 
The way I do it is to just open the CommPort.

MSComm1.PortOpen = True

I add a timer routine to block the port only at certain times/days of week.


Hope this help.
