HOW TO FUCK MACS OVER THAT AREN'T USING A SECURITY SYSTEM
----------------------------------------------------------

I should just say "If you don't know what to do here, then you 
shouldn't be reading this."  But I won't.  There are several fun 
things to do with Macs that have no security.  Don't screw over the 
computer unless it's absolutely necessary.  Even though I hate those 
goddamn machines, the lamer did pay some money for it.  

THINGS TO DO:

You can go into the system folder (some people are too scared to look 
in here but they're dumb) and take all the Extensions and move them 
around to different parts of the hard drive.  Drives people nuts.  
It's also fun renaming system stuff and also not making it work.  You 
can unlock all the stuff which is locked by clicking on the icon and 
pressing apple-I to bring up the Get Info screen.  There's a little 
check box in the lower left corner.  Uncheck it, and have fun!

You can also get a keystroke recorder (anywhere on the net), and hide 
it in a mass of folders.  You can get passwords and stuff real easy this 
way.  But yes, this is illegal (I think) so don't be dumb or obvious.  
People make programs for Mac which hide files on a HD.  A good one is 
resedit.  Get it, and hide the keytstroke recorder.  If you can't figure 
out how to do this then you're freakin stupid.

HOW TO GET AROUND SECURITY
--------------------------

Huh?  What security?  There isn't much of it.  Me and PhrostByte waged 
an eternal battle with our school's so-called protection, and busted it 
several times when they found a new way to try to keep us out.  Then we 
moved away so the school is now full of shit.  It's supposed to be one 
of the most tech advanced schools in the world BUT THEY HAVE MACS!  
They can't be too smart.

The program they used was called FoolProof, and is probably the lamest 
program I have ever seen.  

The "legal" way to turn this off is to double-click the icon and a 
password screen comes up.  This is where the keystroke recorder comes in.  
But to get around FoolProof, you don't even need the password!  This is 
what makes it so fucking dumb.

The easiest way to turn this thing off is to restart the computer and hold 
shift.  It should say "Extensions off", and now you got the system.  This 
is when you should hide the recorder in the system.  Move FoolProof 
(there are 2 icons) around the hard drive or even delete them.  Make sure 
you move both FoolProof Control AND FoolProof INIT because if you just 
move one for some reason the other one pops back in.  But after a while 
the version was upgraded to not be turned off like this.  Ughh!  

If you did hide the recorder, then engineer your teacher or owner of the 
comp to type the password in.  Tell him that you want to move something 
to the hard drive to make it cache quicker or to back it up.  Be creative.  
When he does type in the p/word, if you're like me and have a photographic 
memory, try to look at his hands.  If you don't have one, then bring up 
the keystroke recorder.  If you can't find it UNHIDE it dummy.  Now you've 
got his password and don't need to bother with the rest of this shit.

But if you still can't get around it, find out what the settings are by 
trying to drag something from your hard drive to a disk.  Can you???  If 
you can, then FoolProof is configured to let you drag stuff around.  
Move the system folder icons even though you can't open them.  Put all 
the FoolProof files you can find on that disk.  If you want to, look 
through the files using a disassembler to see how it works and also to 
maybe find the password file.  Me, I'm too damn lazy.  I just drag it on 
the disk and that's that.

If you can't drag the files, then the config is screwed.  Again ask your 
teacher/owner of comp to type in the p/word.  When they do, tell them 
to get bent or something and goto the config screen of FoolProof.  Now 
if I have to tell you what to do now then you shouldn't be reading this.

There is one other way of Mac protection I know about, it starts with an 
A I think.  (Armorguard?) I don't know how to get around this as I have 
not seen it on any computers.  It's probably better than FoolProof.  

If you have a way to get around this other program, send me mail at

Thanks to PhrostByte for helping HACK THE SHIT MACS, and to Singapore American 
School for being so dumb to not find out who kept breaking in all those computers.
