Re: TIB: Re: NT- TOO HARD TO USE
I may have a better one. I go to the GM Technical Academy (engineering), and the
computers there are supplied and maintained by EDS. Of course they have a security
program that stops you from deleting, copying or moving files, and also restricts
BIOS access. One little problem, most of the programing was done with batch files.
Open notepad, hack a few files, change paths, and viola, no more security! This is
EDS I'm talking about here! These guys are stupid!!
