FoolProof is a tool used by schools,
internet cafes, libraries and other
places that don't want you 'fool'
around on their computers. There is
only one problem. It only protects the
system from fools. Anyone with a little
bit of knowledge(or this guide) could
easily disable FoolProof. Here's how.
The best method I find for disabling
FoolProof is to reboot the computer. As
its starting up hit F8 and boot up
windows in safe mode. In safe mode,
FoolProof doesn't run which makes it
very easy to disable. From there you
can go to Add/Remove programs and
uninstall it or rename the fp95
directory to anything else and it won't
work when you restart the computer
again. But there's still my favorite
method left. Once windows is started in
safe mode, edit the autoexec and remove
the line that refers to the fp95
directory. Then edit config.sys and
remove the device line that refers to
the fp95 directory. Then go into
regedit and go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftW
indowsCurrentVersionRun and remove
the two fool proof entries. When you
reboot the machine, the foolproof
directory will still be there and it
will still appear to be installed but
it won't start up. Another way how you
can prevent foolproof from starting up
is press f8 while the computer is
booting up. Then go to dos without
autoexec.bat. You will be free to do
whatever you want from there such as
rename the foolproof directory or to
edit it so it won't boot up. A long
time ago, I think the system admin.
disabled f on bootup on me. What I did
then was made a boot disk and inserted
in the computer. When the computer
booted up, it give me a command prompt
in dos, allowing me to remove foolproof
however I like.
Now, if you'd like to know the password
and has foolproof installed so that
foolproof will start and protect but
you know the password so you can turn
it on and off as you please. Simple.
First, do what I said above. Now that
foolproof is remove turn on the
computer. Once it boots up, start up a
keylogger(Keyloggers are available at
http://www.hackersclub.com/km/files/hfil
es/index.html). Now run the file C:fp95
fool32.exe. This will ask for the
password. Now call over the system
admin or whoever knows the password and
ask them if they'll turn it off for a
sec. So they come and type in the
password and turn it off, even though
it's already off and disabled. Once
they leave, check the keylogger and
find out the password. You can then
edit the autoexec.bat, config.sys and
the registry and put the foolproof
entries back in so that foolproof will
boot up, but you can always turn it off
with your new found password.
If the methods above don't work then
it's your chance to fool around with
foolproof. Some things that have helped
me in the past is Microsoft Word. Open
up Microsoft Word and go into Help
About, then click on system
information. This program allows us to
do anything Run would allow us to do.
Thank you Microso$t. You could also
open up Visual Basic and start a new
standard exe and put this in:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim run
run = Shell("C:command.com", 1)
End Sub
When you run the program it will open
up a msdos window. Try out some dos
commands and see what you have access
too. It might not be much. Well, those
are my tips and tricks. Anyone with
more information feel free to email me
and share the knowledge. Or, after
reading this you still can't figure how
to disable it, email me and I'll try to
help you out. I'd like to thank
Nebulous and Virtual Punk for help with
this article.
