In the Operational Mode Application Manager completes the following functions:
• acts as a shell.
• keeps all Approved Applications running; if some of them crash it restarts them; if some of
them will be frozen it restarts them too.
• shows all enabled applications in System Tray (see Security Settings dialogue)
• controls the the applications protection system (each application is password-protected
during Approval Mode)

additional functions are available:

functions will be catched by Explorer)
