Windows 2000 and Windows XP come with drivers for several wireless LAN ("WLAN") adapters; installation requires only insertion of one of those adapters. Administrative privileges are not required, as no new drivers must be registered with the operating system. WaveLock assists in enforcing security policies by blocking access to these adapters, making it harder to circumvent firewalls, filters, proxies, and other required safeguards. To install WaveLock, download and uncompress wavelock.zip. Execute the resulting wavelock.msi file (a Windows Installer setup), which installs wavelock.sys. Reboot to load and activate WaveLock. A list of the wireless network adapters supported out-of-the-box on Windows 2000 and Windows XP can be found below. Note that WaveLock cannot know about and will therefore not block additional drivers installed by administrators.
