If you make a strong case, sometimes the IT department will make changes. Other than that, this forum will not help you bypass security.
I often use a computer at the school I attend and most of the control panel items are hidden. I read my online textbook on this computer and it sleeps after only a few minutes. It is quite annoying, but the screen saver item is hidden from the control panel. Anyone know some code to get the computer to sleep after like 30 minutes or never? Or any other way to get the computer to stop sleeping after a few minutes?
