My friends and I used Menuet back in 2003 to circumvent our highschool's OS restrictions. Impressive to see it's still around, great project!

The XP era security was a joke. I used to open notepad, bring up the dialog to open a file, right click on an executable that was "blocked" and run it from there.

I was once using a public library computer that was loaded full of malware despite all of the "security" software, and I asked the library staff if they were okay with me working around it, to could uninstall the malware. I was expecting that they'd defer to some policy only allowing the county IT department to mess with the computers, but instead they were excited that I new how to do so and had no complaints.

I was in 10th grade in 2003. Time sure does fly.
