How to Prevent Rust


source: bostonbiker.org
Metals are one of the most strong and durable materials we can find in the planet. However, they are subject to corrosion. Corrosion is a chemical reaction where Oxygen reacts with the metallic elements like iron. Corrosion is also called oxidation.

When the metal’s atom’s, like iron, comes into contact with oxygen, they combine. Iron has a positive charge and oxygen has a negative charge. The two would attract each other. That is also the reason why you need to keep metals off from water because water has dissolved oxygen which can corrode the metal.

To keep your metal objects from being corroded, you need to keep it from having contact with oxygen molecules. First and easiest thing you can do is you can apply some amount of oil. Light machine oil or lubricating oil would be great. You can use cooking oil if you have no other source. Spread the oil evenly and thinly on the surface of the metallic object. It’s cheap however it easily gets removed so you always need to reapply. The other thing you can do is paint it. Coating it with paint will protect the metal from oxygen.

If you want neither of these methods you can prevent rust by choosing a material that does not corrode. Or materials that have been pre-coated with zinc. Metals like titanium does not corrode, however they are more expensive.

How To Damage A Computer With Deep Freeze Using a Windows Installation CD and an External Storage Device


This one is simple. The goal of this action is to modify the boot files such that the computer won’t be able to start properly and still b in Deep Freeze. The Windows installation CD will modify the boot.ini file to look for your external device so that when you remove it, windows will keep on looking for it and will not start.

From the title you’ll need:
1.       An external CDROM drive (if the computer does not have an optical device)
2.       A Windows installation CD (I used Windows XP3)
3.       An external Storage device. Anything that’s formatted to NTFS should do
4.       Access to the BIOS. Else, you might not be able to load the CD

First, access the Computer’s bios then change the boot priority to the CDROM Drive. Next, Install the operating system into your external storage device. But before the installation finishes, after the blue installing screen, cancel the installation. This messes up the system files. Remove the external storage then restart the computer.

The computer would then try to boot from your drive. This problem can be fixed by modifying the boot.ini in the computer’s operating system directory but since it is in deep freeze, it will just keep on restoring back when you restart. Unless, of course, if you have a password for the deep freeze.

You can also use an external device with an operating system to modify files in a computer that has deep freeze. Once your OS is running the deep freeze won’t run since it is in the other OS. So you can now do whatever you want with the computer.
