FamShell sits on top of the Workplace Shell without replacing it. It is intended to 'protect' your WPS against members of your household etc. who wish to use your computer for their own purposes, but don't want to get involved with the details. It provides an easy interface for them, on which every button does just about what it says. They get access to a folder of their own, plus the CD and floppy drives, if you wish. You can also give them access to a games folder. That's the deal: they can use your pc, but they agree to stick to FamShell and not to 'attack' your WPS. The program's not a foolproof safety system against saboteurs, but a friendly offer to well-meaning people who do not really wish to cause chaos (but sometimes do when clicking around on your lovingly customized Workplace Shell).
