Elvira doesn't have any disk protection but yes, games with both, disk and password protection, weren't uncommon (f.e. the already mentioned Lotus, F-19 Stealth Fighter, FATE-Gates of Dawn)

Frontier, if i remember correctly, had a "search the word" protection, only it did not stop you from playing for a wrong one, but it would ask you periodically and maybe remembering and adding up the errors. so that you were stopped sooner or later.

Yes, see my earlier post about the Frontier protection somewhere in this thread. It's still the winner for me as it even asked you again(!) to look up a word from the manual when you entered it correctly! Bloody annoying.
