Hi there...
Has anyone on the list ever hacked away at a laptop machine with Windows
2000 Offline Folders? Are these folders encrypted at all, and if I were to
reset the user's password and then log in, would that give me access to the
folders? Any other concerns? I am trying to assess the risks involved in
the possible use of offline folders by our mobile workforce.
Thanks!
