Sesame

Sesame is a simple but effective safety tool for your Macintosh or compatible computer. This application prevents unauthorized access by requesting a password whenever it is launched (for instance at startup). Security options will prevent a power user from inactivating Sesame at startup or forcing it to quit. And even if a snooper uses a System floppy disk to start up, Sesame will protect you: it can automatically hide the files of folders you have selected; without the right password, they will remain invisible. You can easily personalize the presentation of the password dialog with your own icon, picture or text, and Sesame even incorporates a screen saver. And finally, a nice touch for site administrators: you can create an administrator password in addition to your individual password. Sesame requires System 7 or higher and is fully compatible with Mac OS 8. Sesame comes with a detailed manuel, and an installer program that will install everything for you. Shareware $10 (site license: $100, world-wide licence: $400). *** This is the US version of Sesame. French, German and Japanese versions are also available. ***
