- ===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
-
- Windows 95 is great, but it's not very secure. How can parents control
- which programs their children use? How can stores, schools, and
- libraries allow their computers to be used by the public, yet prevent
- people from changing the configuration of complex computer systems? How
- can businesses let employees use the software they need to do their jobs,
- yet prevent them from accessing or installing other programs? How can
- anybody keep a log of which programs were run, by who, and for how long?
-
- That's what WinU is for. WinU is a Windows 95 "parental control" system
- with time-out and security access features, three distinct levels of
- security control, and many flexible configuration options. ItÆs easy to
- set up, easy to use ... and virtually impossible to circumvent.
-
- This makes WinU excellent for parents who want to allow children to use
- only certain software on the family PC, without worrying that Junior
- might delete the household tax records. You can set up a different
- password- protected WinU desk for every member of the family. You can
- also password-protect each individual program on a desk. And you can
- limit the time that any program or desk can be used.
-
- Businesses can use WinU to allow employees to run only authorized
- software, and make all other programs unavailable. WinU is far better
- for this purpose than the meager Windows 95 facility, because it is more
- powerful, more flexible, easier to set up, and simpler for end-users.
-
- System administrators will appreciate the easy desk-management tools.
- They make it fast and simple to copy program-launch buttons to other
- desks, to add, delete, or copy desks, or to clone entire WinU
- configurations onto a new computer without re-entering anything. And you
- can administer all configuration elements, including all passwords and
- time limits, "on the fly" from a remote file on a network server.
-
- WinU offers rock-solid security. With it, you can deny access to all
- non-WinU programs, even programs that are run while WinU is active. And
- WinU can track exactly when programs were run, by who, and for how long.
-
- WinU allows you to use any Windows bitmap as its background image. Use
- your company logo or your favorite picture. Show the image full-screen
- behind the buttons, or put the image in the top half and the menu buttons
- on the bottom to give an unobstructed view.
-
- Best of all, WinU simply cannot be shut down improperly or maliciously.
- It provides permanent, unstoppable security coverage for your Windows 95
- computer system.

- ===== Installation =====================================
-
- You can install WinU automatically, using the enclosed auto-installer. To
- do this, simply run install.exe from within Windows. You can run it using
- Explorer or the Run item on the Start menu, or in whatever other
- convenient way you choose. Give it the directory to put the WinU files
- into, and the Start menu group name for the WinU icons (appropriate
- defaults are suggested). It'll do the rest. The installer will make no
- changes to your system set-up or to any systemwide files.
-
- WinU also includes an uninstaller which will completely remove all its
- files from your system if you desire to do so.
