The wonders of Syskey

—Wonders of Syskey—

Many of us use third party software like (Winlocker, Bootlocker etc) in order to safeguard the booting process of Windows. These software snakes the system in the booting process ask for a password to continue the booting process. Some of these softwares much smarter than they look. They send user data once the system has booted though emails if the user is connected to the internet…and then, then what, your system is more or less history!!!

This is an interesting way to increase the security of your machine further. With the help of this tip, you will need to insert a special floppy disk(if you are really outdated) that you make in order to log on. If you loose the disk, you are locked out. FOREVER!(optional)
Click on start run and then type in SYSKEY, hit return(ENTER key)

On the first window that opens you shall need to click on UPDATE.Click on UPDATE and select PASSWORD STARTUP:
Enter your desired password twice in the boxes provided and finally clicking on OK saves the settings. From the next time you boot your system a popup opens (just after the Windows XP Boot up animation) asking for password to continue.
The update window appears as below.:
