> It's an Imac... :( And I suspect that the cd drive is locked, it
doesn't read although it spins up. I'm looking into a USB 5.25 case
since there is no floppy to try anything with. Thanks though.
Unless the CD-ROM is actually physically broken (i.e. it doesn't read
CDs) then you can boot up your computer using the Mac OS CD-ROM and
bypass the software (possibly... don't know foolproof).
It's been at least 2 years since I used Foolproof in my classroom,
but IIRC the last version of it didn't let you use the usual
workarounds, including the CD trick. That was why some hated it and
some loved it. Put me in the latter group. No kid ever hacked my
imac, ...... but the hand me down PC's that we eventually converted
to - that's another story.
