Any way to disable activesync while program is running

[ataha]

Ive got a program running in Kiosk mode, and we are not supplying our
customers with cradles. However, one of them could buy a cradle, place
the PDA in it and start pulling program or data files off the PDA or
changing files on the PDA which is not good.

Is there any way to disable ActiveSync on the PDA while the program is
running ?

thanks

I guess that you could scan for a copy of repllog.exe running and terminate
it, if you found it.

You can disable activesync using a reg key:

To disable ActiveSync a registry key needs to be created in the
following path:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services

KeyName: Disabled
Type: DWORD
Value: 1

Hi,

Tried to create the registry key but it did not disable activesync.

Anyone knows how to programmatically disable ActiveSync?

Thanks,
