===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
Kidproof <tm> for Windows (Version 1.0)
---------------------------------------
Kidproof is an application for kids and parents. It allows you,
the parents, to protect your programs when your child is using your PC.
Having Kidproof is like having a childÆs desktop within your desktop.
When you launch Kidproof, you are starting a mini-desktop. You add
programs to Kidproof that your want your child to launch. When your child
is launching programs within Kidproof, the real desktop, your own, is
safe and secure. Your child will not be able to access anything that is
outside of Kidproof.
Kidproof is very similar to Program Manager. If you know how to use
Program Manager then you already know a lot about Kidproof. As for kids,
they just have to point and click.
With Kidproof, you are not required to exit any application you are using
just because your child wants to use your PC. Kidproof will protect your
already running applications Your child will not be able to access any
applications that are not started from Kidproof.
