How to Destroy a Perfectly Good Computer Installed With Deep Freeze

How to destroy a perfectly good computer installed with deep freeze

Introduction:
So you have been to a computer shop where you are asked to pay about half a buck or more for every hour of using their computers and internet. You sit down thinking you would get your money’s worth. You ran your favorite browser when things started to slow down and slow down and slow down until your computer hangs. You ask the shop keeper what’s wrong then they just send you to another slow computer.

It’s definitely not the computer units. It’s their internet connection. So why do they bother putting up a lot of units in their shop even if when all of them access the net, the entire network slows down? Are they too cheap to upgrade the connection?

Anyway, it’s not your problem. You pay right but you don’t get served with the proper service.

So it’s payback time.

The Problem:
Most computer shops utilize the very popular deep freeze. Deep freeze “freezes” the hard drives so that any changes done in it will be reverted. Hence, all of your payload will be useless.

Also, an added layer of defense is done by some shops. It involves limiting the user’s access to certain parts of the computer including restricting the programs that can be run. This defense is very hard to bypass but almost all shops I know that uses this kind of protection gives a very good internet connection – even if all of their units are used. So, there is no problem with this kind. Our main concern now is taking care of those cheapo shops.

The Solution:
Before we send the nukes, we take out the SAMs.

To disable deep freeze you need to first, revert the time at least two years back (when it was not yet programmed). Then you need to end the process with an image name of DFServEx.exe.

To do these you should access the date and time setting of your computer. It can be found in the control panel or just double click the clock display on your taskbar. Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to access task manager. Go to the process tab then find DFServEx.exe. End task it.

Now that the Deep Freeze process is down, you can now concentrate on planting your nuke. You could get creative any way you want: damage the drivers, remove important program folders ESPECIALLY the Deep Freeze folder, place in a virus, or maybe a Trojan, erase all documents including backups, and my favorite: mess up the operating system.

Before leaving, make sure the computer shuts down or restarts so that your payload takes full effect. You can press the power switch or just restart it from the task bar but I prefer to task kill svccvhost.exe. Type “taskkill /IM svchost.exe –f” When you do this the computer will restart in 60 seconds. It would be nice to format other drives while it does this. Have fun and don’t mess with high tech shops.
