Windows Security Officer 98
shareware version 3.8

DESCRIPTION :
Windows security officer is an autonomous provider of log-on
and resource restriction security integrated with, yet independent of,
the Windows 95/98 operating system.á It has the capability of providing
extremely strong, secure control of who can access the personal
computer resources; and exactly what and when they can do while they
have access to those computer resources.á If a users time limit has been
set and it has been reached, the computer shuts itself off and that user
can not log-on again until their prescribed time range arrives.
Windows security officer enables you to protect and totally control access
to your personal computer. It offers administrative support for controlling
which users are allowed to access your computer and the level of access
each user may have. You can choose to restrict access to several
Control panel applet functions, including Display, Network, Passwords,
Printer, and System. It's not all or nothing -- for example: you can allow
a particular user access to your wallpaper settings but not allow themá
to change your screen saver. You can also assign separate system profile
folders to each user, providing each with their own custom desktop.
You can additionally: disable Start menu items, hide your drives, disable
the DOS prompt, hide desktop icons, and much more. You can even set
an access timer (when and how long access will be allowed) and allow access
only to programs on your personal computer you place on a restriction list.
You can designate an access time period for each user.
Also you have got an ability to prevent creating some windows on the user's
desktop. For example , the explorer (Windows' shell) has a lot useful features
for you but dangerous for your system if somebody has unwanted access to
your computer. You can prohibit creating of the window "Settings: Date/Time"
(or any onother window) and nobody can change the system time , etc.
Windows Security Officer is used by people at home, in schools,
colleges, universities, offices and even in the US Army !
