Safe Mode Concept?

We all know the growing threat of viruses in the computercraft world. Well, safe mode can fix this. It brings a loading screen to startup. If you hold down Ctrl + P during the loading screen, it will say SAFE MODE OPTIONS: And then checkboxes which turn red if false, green if true. The checkboxes are HTTP, Rednet, and LUA Prompt. Then theres a proceed button. Safe Mode prevents user-made programs from working. Any code that is not in CD/ROM will NOT be run. This can be useful for deleting viruses.

Closed and moved to Suggestions.

We're not going to do something like that for you guys. You can definitely do this with enough programming now-how.

This can easily be accomplished by using just a startup floppy. It doesn't take anything more than that.
