Microsoft Shared Computer Toolkit for Windows XP

Shared computers are commonly found in schools, libraries, Internet and gaming cafés, community centers, and other locations. Often, staff members who lack technical training are asked to manage shared computers in addition to their primary responsibilities.

Managing shared computers can be difficult, time-consuming, and expensive. Unrestricted, users can change the desktop appearance, reconfigure system settings, and introduce spyware, viruses, and other harmful programs. Fixing damaged shared computers costs significant time and effort.

User privacy is also an issue. Shared computers often use shared accounts where Internet history, online documents, and cached Web pages are available from one person to the next.

The Microsoft Shared Computer Toolkit for Windows XP provides a simple and effective way to defend shared computers from untrusted users and malicious software, restrict untrusted users from system resources, and enhance and simplify the user experience. The Toolkit runs on genuine copies of Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Home Edition, and Windows XP Tablet PC Edition.

You can download the toolkit or view the doc online.
