[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 1019654, member: 243342"] Nice one, Evan. Windows 3.1 I don't have a lot of experience of. One thing I remember is hacking a 'security' program called Future Lock (also available for Windows 95), which stored mildly encrypted passwords in a text file. 30 minutes 'decoding' a known password revealed a very simple shift cipher... I was in 'admin' account very quickly! I actually wrote a similar program (called !FLock...) for my then Acorn RISC OS machine, which did a very similar thing... but anyway... The most I've done was multi-boot Linux, some NT based Windows (probably 2000 at the time) and Windows 98... those were easy though as all are different architectures. [/QUOTE]
