Version: Full Armor Network Configurator and Full Armor Zero Administration Operating System: Win95/NT This is an alert for Full Armor made by Micah Software and rated very high in PC Week. While being a part of a team that was to install and standardize all the desktops throughout a company this hack was discovered. The software itself is a desktop protection software that has many many more options than the regular poledit that comes with Win95, although it does utilize and expand on the poledit program. The problem/hack comes into play when you get the Full Armor warning that you don't have rights (or any other Full Armor dialog box) if instead of just clicking the ok button to remove the dialog box, instead you choose <ctrl> + <alt> + <del> to get to the task manager you can end task on Full Armor and remove all the protected areas, thus having full access to everything on your destop/PC. The has been tested on both 486 and Pentium machine's all running Win95 and the hack is reproduced everytime. There is no current work around for this hack. I have been in contact with the software developer's at Micah and they are currently re-working the code that should have a fix for this by tomorrow morning (6-9-10). If you are running Full Armor it is recommended that you get this fix when it becomes available. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ K&R Information Technologies http://asd.dyn.ml.org/ -- http://asd.dyn.ml.org/asdw kdicaire () vic com -- kdicaire () asd dyn ml org -- paris () asd dyn ml org +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
