Why was thread "WIN 7 Ultimate - Lost Admin Password" deleted? 1

Seemed innocent enough to me or am I too naive?

This is not a slam, but I'm imagining lots of people on here are not "IT Professionals" as in they make their living off of IT. Let's face it, you don't have to pass a test to sign up and post advice here.

What does your document say about snooping around in people's documents? See the following - I got a HUGE laugh out of this one and a little creepy feeling too. It's short so read it all.

Hilarious! One of the best Privacy Statements I've read.

No doubt all the single women in NYC with computer problems and lots of pictures on their machines would be feeling much better about dropping said PC off to a total stranger. Not so much!!

Sort of like this - another funny:

Shoot. I'll have to read that craiglist listing at home, b/c the proxy server at work blocked it. Is it that bad, or did the work filter pick it up on key words?

 

[goombawaho]

That's funny that it was filtered. NO bad words at all. Maybe you're being blocked from C.L. in general.

 

[kjv1611]

No, I can view Craigslist normal listings. Maybe it's b/c it's under the "Best" category, looking at the link text. Our proxy servers got a LOT stricter as of the last month or so - new server. It was so bad, initially, that they had to shut it down for at least a few days or a week, b/c it was blocking practically everything.

It still blocks access to some forums. .

BUT NOT tek-tips!

Hirens Boot CD should be in every good Admins selection of tools

I agree... Hiren's is great. I have it in the drawer right next to me. Saved my butt a few times.

... like the Windows 7 SP1 that totally trashed my machine....



Just my 2¢
