techniquefreak Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 (edited) http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sharedaccess/faq.mspxI just found that and I find it sounds interesting to use for safeguarding your XP installation ... Has anyone here tried the tool to see what it does - it's a beta so it's free for genuine M$ owners - what do you guys think?Download here:http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=47025GreetsJacob Edited July 29, 2005 by techniquefreak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Zugec Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 I already tried... Looks interesting, it is not for real pros, however for technicians etc who are responsible for kiosks or internet coffees... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techniquefreak Posted July 29, 2005 Author Share Posted July 29, 2005 (edited) Yeah I saw that's the main purpose - but they also state this in the FAQ:Although the toolkit is designed to secure and manage shared computers in public environments such as schools, libraries, and Internet cafes, there are certainly other uses for the tools. For example, you could use the Windows Restrictions tool to help secure a family computer, or use the Windows Disk Protection tool to test software—especially software that you download from an unfamiliar source.So I guess it's a good supplement to A/V software or to try out programs without neccessarily making permanent changes to your partition - right? - or to protect from viruses and other malware ...
