Espionage 2 / A suggestion, A possibility
April 09, 2011, 05:31:06 AM
So, I really do like Espionage because its finally brought security to my system.  The only problem is I can never use it as intended.  For example, I never close Chrome.  I hate reloading it, finding all my pages again etc. (I've got about 10 tabs open as well)  Not to mention the unlocking of all the support files (through Espionage) makes loading any protected application a long and cumbersome process.  Consequently, Chrome (and other protected apps) are always open and I it really defeats the purpose of Espionage because if someone, somehow, gets past the initial pasword on my screen saver (not hard) I'm screwed.  

My thought to improve Espionage would be this...  I oftentimes hide or minimize windows when I'm not using them.  Later, when I want to access the same windows again I simply un-hide or un-minimize.  What if espionage had an option to assign a hotkey (or a series of them) to un-minimize or unhide an application? Try to un-minimize or unhide without the hotkey(s) enough times and the application quits and falls under the full protection of Espionage.

Regardless of whether or not you like this idea I don't think I'm alone in the way I use my computer.  People really don't want to quit applications every single time we leave them only to have to relaunch them 2 min later.   Why not implement this idea or another like it so that Espionage stays relevant to how people use their machines?
