To remove the BIOS password, don't you just need to isolate the mobo from a power source, remove the battery,and flip a jumper?

Who am I, local child welfare guy, I working on getting Mom and Dad to remove said computer, (a nice looking dell laptop btw), and a desktop. Ma and Pa seem willing to do this. However kid is all ready scheming around this. For the record, this kid is on a destructive path for himself, made on real big boo boo already and is setting himself up again. Yes I did take his porn away on tape and dvd
You are a fvcking tard. A typwriter and a library would work just fine especially if it is a troubled kid.
I'm sure the kid wants the PC around so bad so he can type up an English paper. :roll:
Ad homs are a great way to win an argument... :roll:
BTW, if the neighbors' wireless is an issue, then short of parental responsibility (in other words, making sure he doesn't get any wireless cards in the house), getting the neighbors to switch to a wired network is the only way to work it out.

The problem this kid is smarter then me when it comes to this, thats why I want to yank the computers. But he will lay his hands on one somehow (he is working on this already). Can the phone company bloc internet traffic or limit the liength of phone calls.
Alot of teachers won't accept non computer typed work for large assignments now, it's to much of a pain in the ass to try and decypher kids writing.
I thought this was a "mommy finds 17 year old son looking at swimsuit pics on teh intarweb, wants to give him just short of capital punishment" thread, hence my first reply. If it's really as serious as the OP makes it out to be, they may not only have to remove the computer, but also do something about wireless networks. IMHO, that should be the parents making sure he doesn't get ahold of a PDA with a wireless card (comprehendable that it might be sneakable into the house). Having the government order everyone in a certain-number-of-miles radius to shut down every wireless network seems a bit absurd, not to mention almost impossible in practice.
How old is the kid? He have to learn to be reponsible on his own because no one can make him.
Good luck!
Why can't the parents get the phone jack out of his room and just keep an eye on the kid? If it's really that serious, then get rid of the computers as well, but maybe I'm not understanding why the parents can't take a bit of responsibility in this as well...
This really makes no sense OP. Firstly, if the parents are aware the kid has been viewing pr0n and are okay with it then let that be(assuming it's of the legal variety). All you can really do is make suggestions to the parents unless he is breaking the law.
legal vareity? isnt it illegal for under 18?(though how many 17year olds havent seen porn must be VERY low)
