RE: Is it possible...
Indeed, i figured that if he/she would do something out-of-line that would
cause repercussions from systems managment AND that it is possible that
his/her sysadmin. is strung out on the job and cannot/does not want to
support this effort but agrees the user can give it a shot. That way the
user can propose a solution, i should have added the insecurity issue
though.

loadlin?
and yes, you could use umsdos.
on windows 9x, you can also just simply exploit all the rights you
don't have.
and what i just thought of, if the person who initially posted this
actually owns the machine, there are very easy ways to software break
a bios password...
