Re: Crash Windows

Just open the Windows directory and take your pick on what to use against it. Registries, .infs, replace .exes with .coms, find a minor glitch, etc.

Re: Crash Windows

Its very hard to write to protected memory NT based systems, specifically windows server, as they have extra protections on by default. Only real way to access kernel memory space from a program you make is to write a kernel level device driver but as i said, it will be easialy blocked as 64 bit versions and versions of windows server do not allow unsigned kernel drivers.

Your beginning to get on my nerves..
If you read his post, you would have noticed he said he was just curious. For all you know, he could have been trying to understand how it works to prevent other applications from doing the same. Think before you post.. and don't just suddenly jump to the conclusion that "It's stupid".
