nope. am not interested in hacking like this. am trying to check if winxp is
basically 'untrustable' and how much work is required for
'pall-of-gloom-adium' to try to win user confidence (antithetical?).
so, if you can just boot up from a linux distro cd or floppy, and you have
the whole winxp data in front, that's what i wanna know.
supreet, dhruv, and all others at ilug-d, please sharpen your talons and
let's find this out. this would have very interesting consequences.
trust me. (oops!)
