Nothing's ever 100% secure, IMHO. Just a thought.
Your opinion is correct. Nothing is 100% secure.Quote:

I have hacked it -- start in safe mode and it is not disabled and then you can remove the deep freeze program or remove it from the startup -- easy as pie :-)
Not sure about the 98 version, but with the NT/XP version starting in safemode does nothing to defeat DeepFreeze. You can boot in safemode and delete everything if you want, but when you reboot its all back. :) There is a way if you have knowledege of ASM and a debugger but unless your're users are incredibly computer savvy, DeepFreeze will lock it up tight, its money well spent.

i do have to respectifully disagree with you because while CHANGES are undone, the actual disabling of deep freeze is not undone because it then doesn't ever start up to undo the changes you made.Quote:

However, i do agree that it is money well spent since we have implimented it in some of our labs at my university and we have only had someone disable deep freeze once in the past year. :)
Its, kind of a pain if you have programs that require alot of updates.
But if its just being used for like say an internet kiosk then it works great.
Here I removed all reg keys and deleted DF in Safemode, then just for good measure I "del /F /S/ Q C: *.*" Observe the results.

I dug this up for you guys, since you seem so hell bent on hacking deepfreeze..sheesh.
OK it is foot in mouth time.... i just looked back at the OS i was using and it was WIN 98 -- yeah, sorry i was wrong about the 2k/xp stuff... i will be tinkering with that tonight and let you know what happens...
u can disable the deep freeze by changing the system time through the set up into the time before installing it
and deep freeze will no longer exist on ur pc .................. that's all
The Overall AntiPoint Status Of This Thread Is: very negative
im new to antionline
but does this mean this thread sucks... :D :( :confused:
I know a fellow who uses deep freeze and is very happy with it, the only way i know to beat it is to boot from a cd, which really beats any security i know of. It is quite popular with educational institutions (several high schools and post secondary insttituitions in my area use it) .
antifirefox -- that will only work on a trial version AFAIK
As to the antipoint status i guess someone doesn't like what you posted sysadmin1984 (i negged the two useless answers) , don't know why its a valid question about a widely used security product , i guess you can't please every one .
