If you're concerned with: * Unauthorized access * Accidental damage or destruction to your valuable programs and data * Protecting confidential information on your system then... METZ Lock is your solution. It's effective, easy to use, unobtrusive--and uses very little memory. If you use Novell(R) Netware, METZ Lock works right along with it. METZ Lock can detect and use your Novell password, if you like. Use METZ Lock to change your Novell password or, if you prefer, use separate Novell and METZ Lock passwords. With METZ Lock, you can prevent unauthorized use of your system, yet allow applications to continue to run in the background. You can even set up METZ Lock to prevent system rebooting with CTRL-ALT-DEL. A comprehensive set of options keeps you in control of system access. You can lock up every time you start Windows, at the same time every day, or whenever your system has remained idle for a specified amount of time. You can even use METZ Lock as a customizable Screen Saver, whether you lock up your system or not. With the help of a special memory-resident program, METZTSR, you'll even be able to work in an MS-DOS window without interruption. If you need additional security at the MS-DOS system level, you can use PC-Watchman ACS, a special MS-DOS security application designed in cooperation with Harcom Security Systems, Inc.

A user-defined dialog can be used by users who forget their passwords and a secure "Institutional Backdoor" provides for administrative access, when the authorized user is unavailable.
