				"Secured PC"


This article one goes out to all the PC users at the Corporate Workplace. 
Ok, here is a little help with those damn so called PC securing applications 
that disable settings on the PC.  The main use of software like this is to 
help your company that you work for, down time on thier PC`s . This is where 
the user goes in and fucks up settings and you have downtime.  The more you are
found out to mess up the computer, the more likely you are to get this software 
installed. In most cases this software is not really needed and just slows down 
the user, which leads to less work production.



Ok, where you work they have this software installed to make your computer a 
little more secure. It might be secure but the chances are that you cannot 
even go into the control panel and adjust your wallpaper. The Administrator 
might even set secure setting for the taskbar, so you have no start button,
you cannot even go anywhere except for the icons on your desktop. Right now 
most people think that is it and there is no changing any settings or be able 
to run any programs. A popular software that is used for this purpose is 
called "Windshield which is owned and distributed bye Citadel Corporation..
I have a few tips I can share with you on how to get passed a few settings, 
this works not only on Citadel software but can come in handy in a few secure 
PC software settings. The first thing a Admin on a large network would like 
you not to have is the ability to browse the Entire Network which really
slows down your hacking fun.

 Now one thing for these by pass tips to work is the ability to right click, 
If you don't we can only try windows shortcut keys . I can explain a little 
more about that later. Ok your looking at a computer with just a couple of 
shortcuts to applications, also you can see the network neighborhood Icon. 
You have no start button, but you still have th ability to right click. 
Basically you don't even need to right click but it help when you need to 
copy&paste any admin takes that away from you, you should complain right
away, Copy&Paste is well needed in to days desktop needs for many things. 
Ok you want to change the wallpaper or screen savor, but cannot get into the 
display settings. Things to look for right click on the desktop. Look for 
anything preferably  "create new" if this is not their don't worry, the admin 
was just keeping you from messing things up. What you can do of course is, 
you must  have access to a word possessor "Microsoft word, Corel WordPerfect, 
which the chances are you have one of these these software suites that you 
have access to. Ok just open your word application. All you have to do
goto FILE then OPEN from here you can just browse to/ if your on {NT/2000}
c:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe or command.com {onWIN95/98/XP c:\windows\system32\command.com
on XP cmd.exe is preferred. Ok just RIGHT CLICK on cmd.exe and paste shortcut 
to the desktop. Walla, Now you have a shell to anywhere on the computer/network 
if you have a little experience. Ok for starters we just want to change the 
screen savor to something else and maybe the wallpaper. Just go into your . 
Word Application notepad is the best, I recommend you create a shortcut to 
that right of the getgo. Ok File then Open browse to c:\windows\web\wallpaper 
for {XP} just rename the current wallpaper to something else and rename the one 
you want,  to the one that you had before you renamed it. Real easy now you can 
change your screen savors the same way , you can still bring them in from home 
if you have access to the floppy drive. Ok , so you don't have Copy&Paste ability
you can try Drag&Drop this works just as good. Also with the ability to browse 
from notepad, any application made with visual basics 4,5,6 can be used as a 
explorer shell, even if the software securing application has put a block on 
things, they did not expect this. Most of the time you can even browse the 
entire network from File then OPEN from Notepad/application. You can use this 
to run almost any application that your profile has a block on. , Also you can 
experiment with different ways to change things, you might not be able to do much 
but you sure can run programs and customize your PC like you had no restrictions, 
this would make any admin go postal. Ok you have nothing no application to
start with just a fixed custom executable, with no FILE, OPEN. You can try Widows 
Shortcut keys. The idea here is to open IE. Or something to get you started off 
with. You might not have any icons on the desktop but there always is shortcut/hotkeys 
on windows. Im sick of typing so you have to find those shortcut keys yourself.. 
Basically it is real hard for these Secure PC software suites be able to block you 
from doing certain things. There is only a few programs out their that use registry 
settings to block you from doing things that you would like to do. Other ones just 
mask them but you can do a lot of work around. Just experiment browse around and look 
for exploits what you can and cant do. If you can make a shortcut to cmd.exe or 
command.com you basically can do a lot from thier If the admin blocked you from 
everything the PC would not even work, well correctly.
                                        
                              Enjoy `,)
