But ALT+F4 will still work unless you have this disabled too (I'm not
familiar with Fortres, maybe it does this). Also be aware that CTRL+O and
CTRL+L both open a Open URL dialog, so you'll need to lock 'em into your
catalog with a fake proxy or the like. Kiosk is still a nice feature though
when you take these into consideration!
