Protecting Owner Information?

[rajiminhas]

All respect to senior members, don't u ppl think that there should be some lock or password or something like that for protecting the "OWNER INFORMATION" contents being edited by somebody other than the actual owner itself.

This actually happened with me, a friend of mine picked mey phone(jokingly) edited the owner information and kept it back.

I was shocked to see his name instead of mine.

I seriously look forward for resolving this shit issue left by microsoft.

I think that there are allready many ways to protect your device with multiple passwords. If you have an auto lock on your device before using it there should be no problem.

If you want to use the phone without accessing the registry I think I've found one weakness already. A user can't edit the owner info, but can use TotalCommander and import a reg.key with new user info. Or simply mess up the owner info by edit the reg.keys containing the current info.

The best way to protect your device is by not to hand over your phone to anyone ;) And use one of the many phone lock apps around.
