Our school computer lab had Mac LC II computers. On them they installed a software called "Foolproof" which would prevent users from making any changes to the system outside of specific directories, iirc. I realized it was a system extension by reading the helpfiles on the computer, and that you could disable all extensions by rebooting and holding the shit key on startup.

The guy who ran the computer lab was not too happy that a 10 year old figured all this out.

The shit key? Did you mean the shift key?
