  1. 1. What's the reason for adding the new account to the SpecialAccounts\UserList? I realise that these accounts are built in automatically and aren't ordinary user accounts.

    2. Is it possible to add a user whilst offline - for instance using Bart's PE or Windows PE live CD?

    3. Is it possible to create a service (again, whilst offline) which runs as System and is running at the time that the logon screen appears?

    1. This is done to hide the account on the welcome screen on an ordinary windows xp/vista installation

    2. I guess so, but I never did that.

    3. see 2.

  2. No idea if this has changed, but government regulation for data security in the US and the Data Protection Act in the UK used to allow ROT13 as valid encryption algorithm. If the company lost loads of customer data and got Data protection Act'ed upon they would be in the clear until a expert witness turned up saying "ROT13 isn't encryption any more, not that it ever really was".

    Hmm, if ROT13 is insecure, maybe it will get secure by encrypting the data twice, I think I'll call the algorithm ROT26.
