Re: kid (and adult) proofing Macs

[Barb Baker <BarbBkr@AOL.COM>]

I have been using At Ease for Workgroups on all of our Macs at school since
last year. It hasn't been bypassed by anyone yet, but you do have to make
sure that your security is set. Each teacher has their own password to get
 to their stuff. It makes it easy for them to organize their folders (they
weren't before..everything was in 1 big mess!) and keeps them and others from
playing with control panels, chooser, etc. This is particularly important
when we have several teachers still sharing a machine.

In addition, we can set up a folder for the kids. We have  1 group of K
teachers who have a number of CD-ROMs for their kids and I have set up the
CDs on the folder so they can just click on the icon and go into the CD.
(They do need an adult around to get the right cd in the drive). It works out
great!!!
