Why is that an OS vulnerablility?  You are not booting the OS, you are booting from a seperate disk.  That would be a physical plant security issue.  You can do the same thing with *nix or any other OS.

Book: Very specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzy around the area of kneecaps.

You can boot to safe mode dos shell rename a couple files and restart the computer thereby bypassing any security and then setting whatever password you want on the system.
Mediocre people are always at their best.

I read where passwords are not kept in files they are encrypted in the registry in Win2000 and XP. But I do see what you are saying.

Actually, they are not kept in the Registry, but rather in a separate file of their own.  Otherwise you would be able to hack it very easily with just RegEdit or Regedt32.
