An alternative application to provide solutions to the current challenges identified in the existing system was then developed. The new application was designed using the Extreme programming methodology and implemented using Microsoft Visual Basic on a Windows 7 system. We created user-friendly interfaces driven by the Visual Basic codes. The application has amongst other features, disabled access to control box of the browser window and the Alt + F4 button as shortcut in closing browsers
