How to convert the SAM file to Password file for rainbowcrack?

Patrol the classroom. If your doing XP installations, there is no application you can write to prevent them from installing games. You'd have to go through LOTS of work to build an XP installation CD that has your code on it, installs the .NET Framework, your application, setup your apps startup, yada, yada, yada. Even then, you can only setup Local Policy that prevents certain .EXE's from being run. There's no way in Hell you're going to be able to suplly the .EXE filename for every game and installer in extistance and keep it updated. The opposite is also true. You can setup a allowed application list, but you have to supply the .EXE filenames of every .EXE they're allowed to run, including Windows utilities like Notepad, Calc, Office install (SETUP.EXE), whoops, that just let them install all kinds of games... can't do that either. ANYTHING you do can be undone easier than what it took to create it. For the last time - the only thing that must change in the classroom is policing it and stop passing students when they don't do the work or violate school policies. It's a cultural problem you have in the classroom, not a technical one. This is as far as I'm going in this discussion thread.

In fact that I already set a allowed list. Now I only write a program for this purpose. Later, I think I will write a service program. But I still need to install it into the harddisk after they have installed the Windows XP in it(They will use it about half year). I have already reported the status to management. I think I have done too much for my post. Now the only thing I can do is developing the program. Anyway, thanks for your help!

To do what, precisely?

Really? How on earth is your application going to KNOW that what is running is a game or not? I'll give you a hint - it CAN'T.
