    I don't know, but it's just possible I could be a genius. Not bragging or anything just pointing out one of God's mysteries:

    This security program is installed on the "secret" first 62 (or 63, i can't remember) sectors of the hard drive. As to how to remove it I can only guess but I would start with something like Active @ Eraser and do a full wipe of the hard drive. then reload your OS image (you do have a backup right?) and see if it pulls that stuff again. If it's still there you'll have to take stronger measures. Try something like DISKLOOK or Norton Disk Doctor and manually over-write the first 63 sectors. Could be tedious. After that I don't know... maybe if you can find out what security program it is it will have an uninstaller. Then we resort to our bulk tape erasers and sledge hammers....A cup of thermite gently piled upon the top of the drive and ignighted with a magnesium wire will do the trick everytime. Might void your warranty though.

    Actually, the original hdd is on slave for baking things up.

    and if its on the bios well, that sucks

    If i knew what security program it was, i should be able to get some info about it buy googling around.

    BTW, his pc runs WAY WAY smoother than a 2.8g prescott i built a month ago

    Since my old pc blew up 3 times before it just stopped working, i think i will build my self an intel machine

    Still wating for him to come over so i can check that email.

    p.s. if someone comes over with a desktop pc and has a big ass padlock on it just keep away from it

    Rip the modem out.

    Or at least don't leave it plugged into a phone socket when the line isn't already in use.

    go behind a router and have it block certain outgoing connections from ur comp.


    not sure how that would be done tho. maybe by uitlizing the routers internal firewall? D-link routers are good for this lol.

    Only if they have built in network adapters.

    The "MAC" address is the address of the "Media Access Controller", usually an ethernet card, which is unique.

    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
