On Guard for Windows

  • 12/01/02

Power On Software’s new version of On Guard for Windows, an anti-tampering product for shared-computing environments, offers the ultimate degree of control over computer access, while maintaining extreme ease of use with a simple point-and-click setup. On Guard provides seamless integration with Windows 95 or later, as well as Novell installations. The program secures desktop computers without changing the user interface, thereby avoiding user confusion. On Guard prevents users from renaming, copying, or deleting files or folders. It locks the user out of sensitive areas of the system to ensure that computers are always up and running. In addition, files, folders and directories can be hidden. This prevents system-damaging user errors, simplifying the user experience and enhancing productivity by making tasks simpler to accomplish. Power On Software Inc., (800) 344-9160, New Albany, OH, www.poweronsoftware.com.
