This almost looks like a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Smart surfing habits coupled with an updated anti-virus and anti-spyware/bot program would do the same thing.

They really need to get someone to write copy for them. A more practical example than playing Freecell would help.

For users like us it would be fine without these programs, but for an internet cafe, with users who doesn't really care about spywares/viruses I guess it's necessary.

I am leaning towards deepfreeze but still looking for alternatives. I am looking for an alternative that could keep online game updates without the hassle of disabling/enabling the program(deepfreeze)

I was under the impression this would be used for a home rig. This could be a useful tool for an internet cafe, but then again, only allowing users limited privileges coupled with using the aforementioned freeware tools could do the job just as well. I guess it would depend upon how much freedom the users would have.

I've been meaning to try Sandboxie but just haven't had time. Looks interesting...something I might set up for my teenaged niece to use when she visits so she doesn't mess up my computer (like she did a few years ago).
