FoolProof Update

[Linda Hicks <lkhicks@PORTAGE.K12.IN.US>]

It looks like it may have been a false alarm.  After putting the young man =
under the bright light in our interrogation room and talking with our =
techy gods, the pieces to the puzzle fell into place.  What he had was our =
master password, not a universal password.  Since it's not the password =
that those of us at the building level have, the confusion was compounded.

However, some excellent wisdom was shared with me, much of which is very =
simple and practical...and so obvious that I'm going "DUH!"  Contact the =
manufacturer of the software, #1, if something like this appears to happen =
to you.  #2...there is a bootlock mode that must be enabled to prevent =
bypassing the software in the first place.  That's a critical option that =
can easily be overlooked.

Thanks to all who shared my woes but particular thanks to those who helped =
with ideas.  My apologies for the false alarm!
