There's a new Sheriff in town

Jungsoft USA Inc., San Francisco, Calif., has released a new PC protection and restoration system that can restore data, files, operating systems and configurations with a re-boot. The HDD Sheriff 5.0 is a hardware and software combination that operates invisibly to the user and works to prevent permanent changes to a system or hard drive. Should the computer become corrupted because of viruses, unwanted cookies, altered system settings or even a formatted hard drive, the HDD Sheriff will automatically return the system to it's previous state. HDD Sheriff uses less then 5% of the available hard drive space and no information is written to the hard drive unless the system administrator approves it. HDD Sheriff provides protection for PCs running WIN9X, 2000, ME, NT & XP, and can be purchased with an ISA or PCI card or a parallel port.
