They had both NetSupport and DeepFreeze installed. At the time, NetSupport config files could be decrypted with a simply python script, and contained the password. Turns out, it was the general admin password.

So I had admin creds, full control of any PC with NetSupport, and the ability to install anything on a computer and have it survive past a reboot.

What did I do with it? Video games, mostly.

People still put passwords in encoded vbscript... If we could all get over thinking your code is some sort of special secret life would be so much better :P
