What's New in This Release:
* Folder lock for XP and 2000, Improved window lock, Lock scheduler, security on/off switch, Home navigation screen, redesigned explorer control.

1. Folder Lock
The Folder Lock screen locks selected drives and folders.
It is therefore impossible for any other software or even a network system to have access to the drives and folders and their contents.
Drives and folders can be locked in five different ways:
1. When the lock type is Read Only, the drives and folders can be viewed but can't be modified or deleted.
2. When the lock type is Total Lock, the drives and folders cannot be viewed, modified or deleted.
3. When the lock type is Hide Contents, the contents of the drives and folders are hidden.
4. When the lock type is Hide Contents and Lock, the contents of the drives and folders are hidden, and the drives and folders are read-and-write-protected.
5. When the lock type is Hide Folder, the folder is hidden itself (doesn't apply for drives).
In this screen you can browse all the hard drives and lock/unlock any drives and folders.
You can also lock, unlock and open drives and folders straight from Windows explorer, Start Menu and Desktop by right clicking your mouse (the lock type defaults to Hide Contents).

2. Window lock:
With the Windows Lock, the administrator can have windows close, disable, prompt for a password, or disappear by giving PC Security "Titles Patterns". A Title Pattern is just a words or group of words set with an action. Once a Title Pattern is set, any window that opens with that pattern in it's title will be subject to the defined action. These affected windows will then be listed in the "Windows Titles Found" list (except those set to "Always Close").

3. Shortcut/Program Lock
The Shortcut/Program Lock Lock, locks selected programs by requesting exclusive use from the operating system.
It is therefore impossible for anyone else to access the software even on a network system.
Programs can be locked in two different ways:
* When the lock type is Read Only, programs can be started but can't be modified or deleted.
* When the lock type is Total Lock, programs cannot be started, modified or deleted.
It is easy to navigate though the Start button, Desktop and drives looking for programs to lock.
If the system is shutdown (or turned off) and programs were locked, PC Security will lock them again the next time it starts.
You can also lock, unlock and open programs straight from Windows explorer, Start Menu and Desktop by right clicking your mouse.

4. File Lock
The File Lock locks selected files by requesting exclusive use from the operating system.
It is therefore impossible for any other software or even a network system to have access to that file.
Files can be locked in two different ways:
* When the lock type is Read Only, the files can be viewed but can't be modified or deleted.
* When the lock type is Total Lock, the files cannot be viewed, modified or deleted.
In this screen you can browse all the hard drives and lock/unlock files in any directory.
If the system is shutdown (or turned off) and files were locked, PC Security will lock them again the next time it starts.
You can also lock, unlock and open files straight from Windows explorer, Start Menu and Desktop by right clicking your mouse.

5. Internet Lock
The Internet Lock provides various ways of controlling Internet access.
Once activated every software accessing the Internet causes PC Security to pop up a screen with information of what software is trying to access the internet and whether the software is acting as a server or a client.
Internet connection can be password protected on a software to software basis allowing the user to chose which programs can always access the Internet, never access the Internet, always ask before accessing the Internet or requiring a password for accessing the Internet.
The whole Internet connection can also be locked altogether blocking all data traffic until unlocked again.
Downloading from the Internet can also be disabled based on the file extension, so disabling .exe and .zip would help protect against viruses and installation of undesirable programs.
To disable viewing pictures on the Internet add .jpg to the download lock list.
To disable installing programs from the Internet add .exe to the download lock list.

6. System Lock
The Lock Scheduler allows the user to select the times in which the computer should be locked. The times must be used in two or more blocks (begin and end), and all consecutive times must be selected as well. The times can be set in multiple blocks, so you my set the computer to be locked from 12am until 7am. Lock again between 12 and 1pm, then lock for the night at 5pm.
The System Lock locks the entire computer.
No mouse or keyboard entry will be accepted until the right password is entered.
The computer can be locked with the screen showing so your favorite screen saver can be displayed or a certain software can stay on and it's display can be seen while the computer is safely locked.
If the locked system is shutdown (or turned off), PC Security will lock it again the next time it starts.
The System Lock can be configured to lock automatically after a certain period of inactivity, at startup, every certain interval or at a certain time.

7. Intruder Detection
An important feature of the PC Security for Windows is Intruder Detection.
When someone types a specified number of wrong passwords, the Intruder Detection takes control and triggers the following:
* Alarm
* Desktop Lock
* Warning Message
* Encrypt specified folders and files (needs Private Encryptor)
* Shred specified folders and files (needs Private Encryptor)
It also shows a list of all bad password entered and their time stamp and when intruder detection took place.

8. Explorer Control
The Explorer Control is a strong desktop management tool that can limit the access of unauthorized users. It works by locking various functions of the Desktop, Start Button, Control Panel and Printers. When used in combination with the Restricted System, allows for strong protection against accidental and malicious damage when the computer is in a public place or in the hands of children.
Use the Explorer Control to protect machines that are in public access places or used by children.
Very useful for maintaining a constant desktop in an organization.

9. Restricted System
The Restricted System screen allows for setting the system to be safe to use in a public setting. With this screen you can limit the programs that will run in the system by placing them in the Permitted Programs list.
When active, only the programs in the Permitted Programs list are allowed to run in the machine.
When used in combination with the Explorer Control, allows for strong protection against accidental and malicious damage when the computer is in a public place or in the hands of children.
