Wrong password trap

[dreamrealm]

I am wondering how can I make if it is possible to make, a trap on my laptop when someone enter a wrong password on the user login. Is there a program that does it or do I need to write a piece of code to do it?

.....The point?

The point is to scare someone into thinking they did something to my laptop, many people want to use it and some often try different passwords that are incorrect.

I think there's a program out there that'll use the webcam to take a picture but as far as faking an error, I'm not sure there's much out there.

Cool, thanks.

I checked the the programs settings and what it has to offer, and it doesn't have a string for the error that comes after you entered a wrong password.

Ok, thanks for letting me know.

If this is a laptop and people are trying to use your computer consider an ATA password on the hard drive. This is set in BIOS. The hard drive has to support security mode however. Most do.

I have configured lockout policies in XP. These instructions will most likely work for Win 7 and win 8 http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd277400.aspx

Actually, here's Win 7 http://resetchangewindows7password....ul-logons-attempts-wrong-password-entered.htm

I don't use that since I set an ATA password and have encrypted the computer as well.
