yes freeze is a very useful software especially if your computer there is used by public. Cybercafes to use this software a lot because this software virtually freezes your operating system drive. So if you have started your computer you can do whatever you want with the computer but you cannot install any application. And whatever you had to the operating system drive or rather the partition it will be deleted after you restart your computer. Basically this software restores your operating system and that particular partition to the previous state where you have frozen your computer. If you want to install any application then first they have two unfreeze your computer and then restart your computer to install that particular application and then you can again freeze your computer and restart. All in all it is a very powerful software. And if you have a lot of virus threats than this is the best software to use

I used this before in an internet cafe I used to maintain and yes I was impressed with its performance as it would surely remove trojans, viruses, spywares or whatever malicious codes that would attack the PC but problem is when you are also offering online games like Cabal and Silkroad, you need to unfreeze it first for every PC and run the update. Other issues I encountered was with the lower version that was version 5.xx wherein it can be unfreezed without the password by using the unfreezer software intended solely on deep freeze. At that time there was version 6.xx and at that time also the unfreezer cannot unfreeze it. Today, I am not sure if there is an unfreezer for version 6.xx as I am no longer maintaining the cafe for about 6 months now.

yup. it's good software to prevent your computer from virus. that because by using deepreeze the setting of the computer will be normaly back to the beginning condition, before using. i think it's very usefull for internet cafe because the rate of using computer in internet cafe is high. computers use by much people and we do not know what exactly user/ internet do to the computer. so deepreeze is a solution to minimize of technitian work.
