Interesting buddy.

saurabh_1e this is no crack win7 password it is just a reset of password. And it will only work if u are administrator and if u are login as normal user this will not work.

Buddy
you've got it all wrong
Microsoft has been shouting on its rooftops advising people not to use Administrator and "hidden Administrator accounts"
use a limited account for your usage and then try cracking it (i dare you do that:-P)
the process your lil bro did was a password reset which can only be accessed from admin accounts (or Limited accounts but only with admin privileges by password)

But then if you are the kind of people who have used Windows all their life
but don't falter in finding faults (real or imaginary) and constantly threat to move to linux , and enjoy meaningless flaming
That is entirely a different case

@funkysourav
I use to use linux with my old config but new one causes a whole lot of a problem!!!!!

[thetechfreak]

@saurav then pls rename thread...
Post results of your results here
If you are so concerned about privacy from your own brother,create a RaR archive put your private stuff there and password lock it..ask your brother to use guest account and you can use admin and then disable command prompt in his a/c


p.s- I am not flaming,just suggesting ways..any fight with your brother must not be blamed to me or any other member..
Sorry admins

common guys.... I have seen enuf of this..... "Switching to linux!!" . Reminds me of the good indian wife who always says "Main mayke jaa rahi hoon aur tumhare saath nahin rehna!" ... Very soon people realise the reality and are back with windows.
Windows is not bad, whats bad is how r you handling it. Win7 gives you plethora of security warnings but you want to keep the privacy settings to minimal coz you get disgusted by the repetitive prompts!! Well every high security installation in this world has multiple physical check points , so you should be ready to face similar steps in PC as well. IMHO security and convinience dont go along. Sacrifice one of them.

BTW if I was to steal any data from a PC it makes no difference to me whether it has win7 or linux installed. Moreover I dont even require to start the OS, leave apart knowing the password so security or privacy cannot be ensured with linux or windows. Remember the golden line
"Anything which is protected by 0 ans 1's can be opened by 0 and 1's", it may take small or long time depending on the persons knowledge, thats all.

Bottom line is know your house well to safeguard it, dont blame the mason if someone breaks in. In a chain there will be a link which will be the weakest, know it!!
