Windows SteadyState, successor to the Shared Computer Toolkit, is designed to make life easier for people who set up and maintain shared computers.
An easy way to manage multiple users
You can manage whole groups of users as single user accounts. The new Windows SteadyState console makes it easier than ever to create and modify user profiles.
A locked-down platform for stable shared computing
Not every computer user should have access to every software capability. Your system can be more stable and consistent when you limit user access to control panel functions, network resources, and other sensitive areas.
Set it and forget it
Once you have everything set up the way you want it, you can share the computer and rest easy. Any changes a user might make to the configuration or hard disk can be undone by simply restarting the machine.

Windows SteadyState is a useful tool for personal computers as well. It's not the friendliest software you could find (for ex. if you have to install a software, you have to restart the PC to wipe all the changes that have occured, install the software and do a restart with the "save changes" option), but if you're the kind of person that doesn't need to install new software every day/week, this is the software for you. Plus, if your computer gets infected with viruses, all you need to do is execute a restart and you'll have the clean Windows system that you had previously.
I'm having some lag time on starting up Windows, but it's worth the time. Beats repairing Windows every time something bad happens.
