List,
A while ago I had to re-install Win98 ; for the first time, I decided to fake that I had more than one user and require password. Since then, I had to use Win98 only twice, and in both occasions I dutifully entered my password. This afternoon, I wasn't paying too good attention to the booting up procedure and found myself in Win98 rather than S-7.3. I was about to enter the password when, in a moment of inspiration, I decided to click on Cancel, expecting the process to come to a halt until I entered a valid password, as it happens in Linux. To my great surprise, the booting up proceeded normally, and I had full access to all programs and data!!!
That's how I always di it; works great at home and on my office machine. However, doing so does not provide access tot he network which i don't want anyway. dave
What's the point of having to enter a user name and password, if it's so
easy to bypass it? I hope you're all laughing at my naïveté. I did laugh a lot!
