    the only kind I know are css2d and regular .swf games

    are there any other's? is it possible to make games and .exe's boot without admin powers?
    (for school)


    or I was thinking that i could boot a computer in safe mode(at school) and then somehow find an account with no password(hopefully admin powers), then create an adminstrator account of my own with a password then luanch the games from there...

    im am total h4xors :)
    wanna hear a side story?
    here it is
    One day i was messing around at a cyer cafe where you have to pay to use a cp. they have no gaming cp's but they handled css and wolfenstein (after i haxed it)
    so i was messing around and i tried to use their cp's for free.
    i tried ctrl+alt+del, to end the cafe screensaver task, but that didnt work, so i pressed windows +u and clicked on see ms website :) that was awsome, so i had good intertnet for free near my school. and when i typed desktop in the browser toolbar, i was able to access everything ie add remove programs, and i removed the cafe brower thingy. 4cp's near school= good lan party :) .
    so try that trick next time

    it worked for me till they patched it :(

    Awesome.

    I love getting around security.

    Games install stuff in the registry.

    I've loaded games unto spare HD and installed it on their machine from the EXE.

    Sometimes there might be programs that block registry edits. If so, find out the program preventing it. Then google and find exploits.

    You also might want to check out ROMs.

    You can DL NES/SNES/N64/Playstation 1 etc ROMS (with PS1 BIOS remember!)

    load it on a burned DVD.

    Enjoy my friend!

    I loaded up SNES onto a CDRW and my mates all burnt that. During software design classes, we'd have network Mario Kart tournaments. Now the closest we get to that in uni is ad-hoc Dawn of War during lectures.

    You cannot use applications that require proper installation. Some programs can be run, take Ventrilo for example, just extract the .exe installation file instead of installing and you are able to run the application with some limited functionality.

    Try working in a keylogger to determine the admin password.

    Depending on the logon/logoff sequence, you might have to script the logger so that it runs when the computer restarts. Then tell the admin the computer isn't working right and have him/her log on.

    And there are several loggers that can run off the USB flash drive straight from the EXE. No registery changes at all.

    Good luck!
