TunnelVision is a computer screen privacy tool for Windows. It is simple, lightweight, and open source application which
blocks out your whole computer screen except a select area where you
mouse cursor is currently located.

With TunnelVision you have the option of
configuring how large area is visible, what shape the area is, and the
color of the area which is blacked out (you may even add an image)
One thing you should be warned about: when
you first run TunnelVision it will only show you a small area where your
mouse cursor is (like my first screenshot above) so you will have to
manually find your way to your system tray and change TunnelVision
settings via the system tray icon.
Admittingly using TunnelVision may get
annoying seeing as you yourself cannot see much of your computer screen.
However if you think you have the need for blocking out parts of your
screen... what is better than an open source application to do it with?
You can download TunnelVision from the following link:
