Any decent admin would deny cd-rom access as well as other things that can easily be configured with the windows group policy snap in.

A word of advice: Unless you want to get kicked out of school, dont even consider such an attempt. At my campus you cant even touch a terminal without logging in first. Unless you have a different account that is not affialiated with you then your basically making yourself a sitting duck.

Use your brain and think about what your doing......................is it worth it?

System administrators running networks often create logs of users with time stamps and other identifiying features that can be traced to you. Schools also have been known to install softwares that record screen and user configuration images as well as keystrokes. Any admin with an ounce of commonsense would also remove the ability to logon using even the primary adminstrator account from common terminals.

I installed such a thing once on my system. I was a little less than thrilled to find out what my boy had been downloading on Limewire and the sites he had been visiting.
