SecurePasswordTextBox - A textbox that uses the SecureString class

To avoid overwrite issue, I just disabled pasting from the clipboard altogether by adding this code snippet I found.

private const int WM_PASTE = 0x0302;

private const int WM_CONTEXTMENU = 0x7b;

protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)

{

switch (m.Msg)

{

case WM_PASTE:

case WM_CONTEXTMENU:

break;

default:

{

base.WndProc(ref m);

break;

}

It also disables the right-click menu.

Unfortunately no quick fix as I haven't spent much time with the control lately. if you come up with a code fix, I'd be more than happy to incorporate it.

I've just downloaded and incorporated this as well. Terrific! Thanks. I have also encountered the overwriting issue, especially when I use cntl-V to paste in text.

Thoughts as to a quick fix? erhm@flash.net

No, it currently doesn't prevent any keylogging. I dont have any immediate plans to implement this, but may do so in future if time permits -or- someone else may take this up... :-)

Does this control have the functionality of preventing keylogging (anti-keylogging) ?

Thanx Guys.

As for the overwriting issue, yeah my testing is minimal so I'll have a look and fix it up. Shouldn't be too hard.

Thx for letting me know.
