Porteus Kiosk是轻量级的Linux操作系统,它基于Gentoo Linux但却被限制为只允许运行一个应用程序即Firefox网页浏览器。该浏览器被锁定从而阻止用户去改动设置或是下载安装其他软件。系统启动后,它 自动调用Firefox并打开用户选定的起始页面。浏览器不保存历史记录或输入的口令,很多菜单功能也被禁用以提升安全程度。Firefox每次重启时都 会清空缓存,这样浏览器每次启动的都是一个无历史痕迹的会话。

Tomasz Jokiel has announced the release of Porteus Kiosk 3.3.0, a lightweight Gentoo-based distribution designed for web kiosks: "I'm happy to announce Porteus Kiosk 3.3.0 which is now available for download.
