Stolen Laptop
Hi
Am I right in thinking that anyone with the knowledge will get into a PC if they have physical access to the machine? A moderator on a forum I use has had her laptop stolen and thinks it will be protected because she "used an administrator coding on my computer to get it to operate so without that information, it is not accessible to anyone."
In other words, it was password protected before it even booted into windows. I've not heard of this, but would be interested to hear what the opinion is on its data accessibility. Could someone not just remove the hard drive (albeit a laptop hdd) and connect it to their own laptop?
