FoolProof? The bane of my elementary school existence. Just let me play SimCity 2000.
- fotbr 5y agoTrivially defeated with a boot disk and ResEdit. Breaking things with ResEdit was pretty much my jr. high school hobby. It took a bit before I figured out how to restore things when I was done. Head "tech" guy in the building eventually figured out it was me, showed me a few things and ended up just giving me an un-limited login and a few rules. Also taught me how to intelligently use ResEdit instead of the brute-force method(s) I was used to.
