In case you haven't heard, there are all these nasty bugs on teh intarweb, and they screw up your PC every chance they get. Home page changes, popups, verrryyy sloooooow in Windows ... all examples of what these things do to a PC.
So .. what do you do about it ?? Chances are, you know how to fix it, but what if its family members or friends ?? They always claim ignorance and drop it in your lap. And as we all know, sometimes family and friends work turns out to be non gratis - no benefits involved for you.
So Microsoft has come up with this handy dandy utility called SteadyState, which locks down the PC and won't allow modifications or changes to your settings. Does it sound like a good thing to you ? Could it possibly .. *gasp* .. WORK ??
Take a look and see - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pro...s/default.mspx
Installed on a PC used primarily by kids (yep, the ones who use Limewire, IM, Facebook and browse thru .. errr, some questionable websites) do you think this would be a solution to a problem facing almost 90% of the users out there ? Anyone have experience using this utility ?? I'm curious.
