can even work without any web server, thus you can publish your
encrypted web pages on CD, DVD or any other media.

your own charset, please check "Specify HTML Charset"

Internet Explorer security message when
viewing the protected files directly from the hard disk.
Problem under
Windows XP SP2:
Due to recent updates from Microsoft to their Internet Explorer
browser—updated as part of the Microsoft Windows XP Service
Pack 2 (XP SP2) update—viewing a web page locally that
needs to run active content or scripting causes the following
security message to appear in Internet Explorer's yellow Information
Bar:
To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has
restricted this file from showing active content that could
access your computer. Click here for options ...
Since HTML Password Lock is based on JavaScript technology,
when you are viewing the protected file directly from the hard
disk, it will display this message also.
This message will only display when you view the protected
files directly from the local hard disk, such as c:\myfiles\myfile.htm. There
will not be such problem when you upload the protected file
to a web server.
How to solve
this problem?
There are two ways to solve this problem:
1. First way: When the yellow Information Bar appears (shown above),
click on it and select "Allow blocked content ...".
The unlocking processing will work fine.
2. Second way: In the program, Step 3, click "Advanced
Options", check "Add Mark of the Web comment in the
HTML code" option, then protect the file again. This option
will add a Mark of the Web comment in the html code:
If you intend to publish the protected page on a CD-ROM other
than a web server, you can use this option, otherwise, you can
just click "Allow blocked content", since there will
not be such problem after you upload the file to a web server.

This mark will force the html file into the Internet Zone other
than the Local Machine Zone, so that the JavaScript in the html
file will run properly on the local hard disk.
How

page, please check "Specify HTML Charset" option in

charset from the list for your web page, then everything will
work fine.
