Easily bypass program protector

[jmoonen]

When a program is protected by program protector you can easily bypass the protection.
Let’s say mirc.exe or outlook.exe is in the program protector protected with a password. When you normally start the program it ask for a password this is what the program is made for, but when you click right on mirc.exe or outlook.exe en choose "run as administrator" the whole program protector is bypassed and the programs starts without asking for any password.

Can this be fixed a.s.a.p.

Running on Windws 7 PRO ( 64 bits ).

Hi,

You must not give administrator privileges on your computer to anybody you are trying to limit somehow on your computer.
This is true for any software product, I guess. If somebody has administrator privileges, then he can do ANYTHING.

Kind regards,

In our case that's not possible.
In our ICT company we have three technical employees that have administrator rights because they need to test software for clients. If one of them steps behind my pc they can access everything with should be protected. The only thing I can do right now is lock down the pc when I leave.

Which you should do anyway, I automatically lock the PC when I go away from my desk.
But then admins can unlock it anyway (on XP at least), that's the point of having admins they can do these sort of things, they have admin rights.

But also you should be able to trust your admins not to do anything they shouldn't.
