IIRC, it's a client for Citrix Winframe, which is of no use to the home
user.

What is it? Erm... without getting really technical, it's sort of... a pain.
There's a server that runs the Citrix software, and you use the client in a
virtualPC-like environtment. (Again, IIRC.)

Citrix is a regression to the old Dumb Terminal/Mainframe days. The
Mainframe ( Citrix Server ) contains EVERYTHING and serves it to the
Terminal ( Citrix Client ). This is of no use to a home users unless you
are Extermly Anal about control.

Corprations use this as it lets the I.T Dept control everything that
the users can do. They can set a client so that it will only run the
programs they allow. Control how the desktop looks and the user on the
client can change absolutaly nothing.
