Hi everyone at Wilders !
Here is one thing I have been up to lately; How to bypass bios password. If you accidently forgot password, or as well your friend did it. There could be several methods to do it, on this site are a few and you can find many more good sites for advices.

The easiest way is ofcourse backdoor passwords but you may have to boot computer after you tried three different passwords. So, the fastest way might be then using kill bios method, either removing cmos battery or using a crack tool [ rpass ] to do it. My favourite is IBIOS a.k.a Bios320 because it doesn´t kill or another word rebuild bios settings.
The reason I bring this here is simple: All of us should know the passwords are not a problem at all when you know what are you doing. Passwords were made for honest people, not for cracker thieves. Same thing considers admin passwords. And furthermore, if your computer was stolen and thieves are not so good at computing, they might find it useless if they are not able to log on.
Here is my recommendation: disable floppy disk boot as well CD boot from bios. Set the password up. This doesn´t stop crackers though, but it make it less easier to use crack tools from a floppy disk. Always use strong passwords - those which ones are not found in any dictionary. The more characters, the stronger password is.

did I make any sense ?
