As to the haters...
I wouldn't say I was a 'hacker' but I've managed to give myself admin rights on every work PC I've had at my last three companies.
No, it's for a job interview. That's my topic.
The Computer Misuse Act 1990 applies to everyone who uses a computer at work and it allows for people who commit some form of computer crime to be punished in the criminal courts. The Act recognises offences such as hacking, electronic eavesdropping and virus infection.
It is a criminal offence to seek unauthorised access to any computer or computer system, or to make an unauthorised modification to any computer material or equipment. The maximum penalty is five years imprisonment and/or an unlimited fine.
Think you should have a read of The Computer Misues Act 1990.

People sometimes ask me, what if you get caught with Photoshop on your work PC that you installed? I simply say, I'd simply tell the IT guy who found me what the bosses would be more p*ssed off with me or them for not doing their job properly![]()
Maybe you should have seen my productivity rate soar when I can use programmes that make my job a lot easier instead of the outdated junk most companies lump you with (my work still has Office 2003 FFS).
My 'hacking' has only benefited the companies I've worked for.

Hey all,
I am trying to find a powerpoint that covers threats to company computers. What i mean by that is, companies who have networked computers and threats to their usage ie:
Disgruntled employees, viruses, trojans, DoS, etc etc. This is aimed at your ground level worker ie don't download files if you don't know what it is, don't send personal emails from works computers.
And it is a short presenatation, maybe 10mins long, basically threats to computers and what can be done to stop them.
Does anyone have such a thing??
Ta!
As to the haters,
Not saying they didn't help you become more productivebut its this reason that companies are moving to thin clients and either RDP or citrix with no CD/DVD drives and the use of USB devices to be banned in order to stop such activities. If you are using "pirated software" the company its self then can face legal action for your actions by allowing you to install that software without permission on a unmonitored network.
Just saying watch yourself and the law thats all bud.
Sure, I realise that. I just hate personally knowing I'm working with ineffective tools. I've been known to go home and work before because of it.
I suspect the police have bigger fish to fry to worry about me.

Back on topic, I would create the slide show your self and if you don't Microsoft Powerpoint I would use open office http://download.openoffice.fm/free/?pk=10305
You will be able to save the document as a Micosoft Powerpoint file so that it will be compatible with their systems.
