Just click "Cancel" here, and you won't be logged off, and your workstation is no longer available to the teacher. This made all the background processes to close down (except RMTutor) before we were asked if we wanted to save the file we just created. We then entered some data into that window (so that it needs to be saved). To do this, we opened a file that needs to be saved (Word, Spreadsheet, Powerpoint, Text, RTF, anything that needs to be saved, I generally used Word). When we were looking at removing SIMs functionality, we decided we would stop it at its own will. Most of this information is not really necessary to my explanation, but it is all I know about the architecture of the school systems (the network is a star network where the "main" star's nodes are more switches for more stars).
We cannot save things to the desktop (Because all our files are stored in our own private (virtualised) server which is linked to our "My Documents" folder. It isn't connected in anyway to SIMs or the Website blocking feature (SWAN). Logging in and out is controlled by a daemon (RMTutor) that starts on boot (before the login) and stops last. We cannot Ctrl,Shift,Escape to get the task manager. And, also, they have locked down everything about the workstation: We cannot right click on the taskbar. Also, our school has a URL/Keyword blocking system, it sometimes back fires (and also blocks for some wiiierd reasons e.g. It does exactly the same thing as Lanschool, but our teachers have their workstations connected to a 100inch "Activboard" so they can basically broadcast whatever you are doing, if you want them to or not. Our school, in the UK, also has a feature like this, its called SIMs (School Information Management System). We actually had teachers downloading and using the program because it was so bad even they where restricted just as bad as us. Some times the restrictions are just to much tho, our school had a vary bad website blocker, It almost made it impossible to do research for history because 90% of websites where blocked for "Violence" witch was completely stupid, it was easy to get by by downloading a proxy program, by the end of the same year they put it in almost everyone had this program and was getting past it. Good idea, just take one more step into the mode of thinking "I wonder if I can talk to the developer to help them make this product better." Shonen, again thank you for taking the path of not really wanting to pwn everything, rather you took this as an opportunity to learn and teach others. Just don't act like you know everything, because you'd be more likely to get ignored. rather than trying to pwn the network jut because you can't live without the greatest thrill online for 8 hours, help the admins by letting them know where the problems exist.
I'm sorry that your IT people aren't as good as they should be.

So rather than helping other kids get around it, help the developers code a better built product. What I might suggest is to email support and explain your findings to them before publicizing it next time though. and I gotta say thank you shonen for being very honest about this and thank you for trying to educate others about the security hole.
