oh, I see. In that case you should be careful lol, as it's her computer. XD

Anyways, to activate the Boot Menu, you press F8(I spam it Razz) when the computer boots up(some bioses have the Boot Select menu on F8 too which can cause a little timing issue there though).

But if I remember right, when you're at the login screen, you can press ctrl+alt+delete+delete(again) to show the Administrator account. So you don't really need to boot into Failsafe. Smile


Example of how to use the net command adding a user called MyLeetUser , and then adding the user to the local Administrators group:

Adding a user:
Code:

net user MyLeetUser /add


Adding that user to the administrators list:
Code:

net localgroup Administrators MyLeetUser /add


Note: The Administrators group name will change depending on operating system language(Mine is "Administratörer", as I'm Swedish)
Good Luck. Razz

so the button is still the same for a laptop as a tower comp for the Windows Safe Mode??

So, at the login screen, when it asks you to type the password, you press Ctrl+Alt+Delete(delete x2), and you will login the admin acc?

Yes always. Smile

Atleast for Windows 2000 and Windows Xp

It won't log you in, it will just show the Administrators account in the list so you can then log in with it. Smile

wow, thx at least this method of blocking sites doesnt require a program. And programs can be found easily, unless u make it like hidden, so it wont appear on startup, or your program files, and like if it is found a password should show upon itself....

Oh, btw I asked my sister and it was her friend who told her how to unblock sites with HOST, so shes not that smart o.0

Yes, at least some programs are easy to find and remove.

Haha okay, I see. Razz

Well this method should hopefully prevent her from doing those mega uploads. XD

Though, the router way is the most fool proof as it's passworded by default, and does the job quite good. Smile

Otherwise you could enable QoS(Quality of Service Packet Scheduler on her computer to reserve bandwidth(a lil more complex to find and use).

For the QoS part, first look here, but instead of unchecking the box, make sure it's checked:

http://bloo.playnet.com/qos.htm

Then, for the a little more advanced step:

Taken from http://clankiller.com/technical/tweaks/winxp/networktweaks.php :

1) Go to start | run
2) type gpedit.msc and hit enter/ok.
3) Go to Computer Configuration | Administrative Templates | Network.
4) Click on QoS Packet Scheduler.
5) Double-click on limit reservable bandwidth.
6) Enable it, then set the bandwidth limit to 0% and hit ok.


Ok, what you need to do here is replacing the 0% with a value you calculate from the max available bandwidth you would want her to have, meaning this:

If you have a router, and say it has a LAN speed of 100Mbit's, and you want her to only be able to upload in .. say 100kB/s, then you'd put this at 99.2 %.

Problem is that the input field doesn't accept decimal places, so you would have to input 99% here(meaning you'll give her 125kB/s max upload(and download I think))

At least that's how I think it works, not 100% sure on this one. :/

This method might prevent it, and could be the next solution if she finds out about the File-sharing, becoz it looks like my sis friend is a person that works with the Head Teacher of computers, but hopefully he doesn't know this stuff o.0

Have you tried looking in your router's setup to see if there's options to block certain sites?


I found a guide on how to set up a username/password to get into the setup, and I'm thinking you can click on "advanced settings" and go from there.


http://www.netcomm.com.au/mac/Guides/NB5PLUS4_Mac_QS_Guide-1.pdf

On my router, it's a texbox you can add sites into to block.
