As a SysAdmin sorta guy myself, I probably shouldn't tell ya'. But security via obscurity is BS anyway (that's why I generally avoid windoze boxes). Google around -- there are many password crack uti

I guess it depends how much you want to defy your company's policies. Doing all that makes it pretty clear that you are going out of your way to beat the system. Is it really worth risking your job,

And, when the friendly helpdesk person tries to log into your computer, can't because you changed the password, and you get fired... Think again about how much you care about having pictures show up

Ouch! Yeah, you're right. I should have mentioned that. Check your employer's Acceptable Use Policy or other stuff you may have signed there. Defragging your PC is just keeping it running better so y

Yes, you are correct. I thought I sent out a retraction last night, but it looks like I messed up and didn't send it to the list. I will resend. Your work PC is a tool to do your work and not a toy.

IMNSHO, blocking defrag is a darn waste of sys admin authority. Where there is a will there is a way. If you screw up, that's when the company gripes at you. ;p I can see reasons to block access to

Nope, doesn't work that way. The helpdesk doesn't use the 'administrator' account, but another account set up for them. Besides, there is no proof that you were the one that changed the password. Ph

Dude, their goal is very unlikely to be to block defrag... Its almost certainly to block something else and the 'easy' way was to block a whole group of things, one of which was defrag. Mark _______

That, in my experience, is highly dependent on how your company's infrastructure is setup, coupled with what needs to be done on your pc. Yes, you very likely would win the lawsuit under those groun

If you can run a defragger, you can read and rewrite every block on the disk. That means you've got control of the machine. It the business's machine, they control the use of it. You wouldn't object

And what's recently made the news, but been known publicly since 2006 I think... If you run Windows or OS X, you're also vulnerable to having the admin password stolen by using the FireWire port, jus

No, the lawsuit would be to ensure that I never again have to work for a company stupid enough to fire me for something that did no harm, and very possibly I didn't do. But of course I'm betting it

Have you looked to see if the "run" button is on the start menu? If it is, type cmd <return> and when the window comes up, type "defrag". It will list the options, so type it again with the options y
