Introduction to Onux - PC Security

If you have ever watched the news, read a newspaper or listen to the radio, you would know all too well that computer security and privacy has become a serious issue in the world.  Onux has been developed to fill the security void where most security softwares for the Microsoft Windows operating system, fail.  Instead of developing a system that only we think is important, we let the users decide what they want in a security tool and have implemented most of their ideas and threw in a stack of our own ideas. 

This is the final release of the first version of Onux. This version of Onux offers a complete set of tools for users of all skill levels. Whether you're a novice that can barely turn on your computer, or a complete computer nerd that understands the binary language of moisture evaporators, you'll be able to use Onux the fist time you try it.

Onux now offers two interfaces to accomodate users of all skill levels.  The Simple Mode Interface has been designed for anyone that does not wish to learn a new software package.  The Advanced Mode Interface is still a significant part of Onux and has a healthy list of upgrades since the first release.  Either interface can be accessed at anytime while using Onux. 

Here is a list of features Onux offers in this final release of the first version:

• Password protected interface access that is fully user controlled.
