R Rebecca Chen [MSFT] Dec 17, 2004 #2 Hi Tom, Pleause use the following steps to prevent user use Safe Mode and other modes. Open the registry key, delete network and minimal key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot. When the user presses F8 to enter the Safe Mode or other modes, Safe Mode will crash. HTH!

So a malware that does this can DoS the user out of using Safe Mode as maintenace OS from which to disinfect? http://cquirke.mvps.org/whatmos.htm and http://cquirke.mvps.org/nomos.htm refer. We *need* a proper maintenance OS for NTFS! Safe Mode isn't. -------------------- ----- ---- --- -- - - - - Click to expand... Running Windows-based av to kill active malware is like striking a match to see if what you are standing in is water or petrol.
