Parents...

[bobby28384]

OK guys, here's the story. I'm 15 and it's summer. The parents believe the computer is a bad thing, and so they bought this ENUFF software. The link is this http://www.enuffpc.com/ If you can, download it or find out how I can get a round the passwords. My goddamn parents limit my time to 2 hours for no reason. The icons are hidden I think under the program files folder. How can I get to those and delete? I need your help guys. Thanks!

Our built-in security protection guarantees that users can't...

Change the computer's date and time
Change any configurations set by the parents/administrators
Alter any critical Windows settings in order to bypass ENUFF PC
Shut down or delete the program

ouch; it doesnt look like its going to be easy......unless you reformat the hard drive and start over; or else go in search of a virus (the latter is not recommended)

Thank God I have my own apartment. I remember the days of the controlling parent's.

You'd probably need to get access through one of their passwords to do anything.

Either that or find the files and get rid of them, which I suspect is near impossible as they are probably hidden for your user profile.

Face it, they're the admin and you're the peon, you're screwed, go outside and enjoy the summer.

Reading this on the website you linked to, you're screwed.

Maybe if you could find a list of the programs registry entries, and delete all of those, you could probably be able to delete the actual files after a reboot.

I think your folks will know if you've somehow cracked the program and have exceeded your two hour limit.

Take their advice. Get away from the damn machine.

I have a method. PM me for details. WE WILL beat the system together.

IMPORTANT DETAILS: Can you run executable files with your current permissions?

[Oz]

You need to run a quality stealth keylogger.

Looks like either of these tools should do the job. Start it running when you're nearly finished with the PC and have a look next time you're on. Should be able to fairly easily spot the username/pass. I would recommend not changing/using their password, but creating a new "stealth" account for yourself to use.

Any questions, just ask.
