Abstract
A computer implemented method provides access to accommodate public use software environments. An attractor screen is displayed on a data processing system providing the public use environment. An interaction with the attractor screen is then detected. If the interaction with the attractor screen complies with audio instructions for executing a software overlay, the control software for the public use system is launched along with the software overlay. If the interaction with the attractor screen does not comply with audio instructions for executing a software overlay, the control software for the public use system is launched without the software overlay.
