Mary,

In our language lab we run Windows 98 (Windows 95 in the past) and use Fortres
101 for security (Fortres Grand Corp - http://www.fortres.com ).  Since
installation of Fortres over two years ago, we have not had any problems caused
by users.  However, you need to spend some time in configuring Fortres so that
it will allow all of your programs to run properly (this can be a pain in some
instances).
