L0rdAki Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 (edited) So due to an unfortunate series of events, a program called "123 EducateMe" was installed on my computer. This thing is a persistant SOB: Obviously designed by geeky guys who were trying to con a cheap coin off hitler-etesque parents. Any idea how I can bypass this thing? I have a limited user account to work with, about 20 mins of internet a day, a laptop only connected to the wireless network, without the program installed. Advise is appreciated, however, users should not respond with tactics on how to circumvent the software.~Laura0077 Edited May 3, 2010 by laura0077 Drops: Black Mask.Clue rewards: Sara Plate, 2 Robins, Some other random stuff.

Dracion1 Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Not really. There have been other threads by people in a similar situation to yours, and the general consensus is that no one here will tell you how to do it. The best thing I, or anyone else can 'tell' you to do is to reason with your parents about this. Sorry :( "In the beginning, the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0rdAki Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 Why not -_- There is no reasoning with my folks. I swear they're like neo-nazi's prosecuting all those who use technology. They hate rs.

The Runar Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I hate those kinds of programs. If parents want to control their kids' internet use, they can tell what sites can be visited and what cannot, and if they see the kid on a site s/he should not visit, don't allow him/her to use the internet at all. Those stupid filters rarely (never) work properly. Openness from both sides is much better. Of course this is just my opinion. Anyway, Linux live cd is the solution if you can get one somewhere.

Laura Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Unfortunately, I cannot let this thread stay open. :( We cannot offer any advise on how to bypass the software, because to do so would go against the words and actions set forth by your guardian/s. I'll let this thread stay open, providing that the replies stay off the subject of circumventing the software. If you have any questions regarding my action, feel free to shoot me a private message. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sort of disagree with this. There is a [cabbage] load of stuff online that may not really be all that great for kids to see. Now obviously sitting down with them and explaining and being open and everything would be nice, it's just not always plausible. I do agree with you on the programs not really working all that well though, there are pretty easy ways around all of the blockers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
