Cely,
I have tried this software and it seems to be ok. It locks up Windoze very well.
I elected not to use it on our Main campus, but I am using it at our downtown
campus.
It operates by loading a cripc.com file in the autoexec.bat to eliminate
<CTRL> and C aborts.
(I feel this should be a *.SYS file ! ) You will be required to add
"switches /n/f"  to your
config.sys and attrib your *.grp files to +R. Fortres loads a hidden icon
that can be retrieved
by a certain combination of mouse clicks and menu choices.

It is:
        left click
        right click
        File New
        File Exit
This launches the hidden icon.

This produces a control panel  that allows you to control almost every
function of Windoze.

I believe if you call the company, they offer a 30-day money back gaurantee
in lieu of a demo.


Hope this helps.
