    Free Internet in Thailand - Everywhere

    So you want some free internet in Thailand? Then this is your thread.
    Actually this is probably something you want to teach the local Thai kids as they will enjoy it the most, now most internet cafes in Thailand have timers on the pc and you buy like an hour or 3 hours of time or whatever, think my local internet cafe charges 40baht per hour but has all nice LCD monitors and nice clean fast computers, there is one down the road from me that charges 20baht per hour and is full of kids playing games on crappy pcs and old CRT monitors, but using this these kids can go in the nice internet cafe and play for free, well, untill they get caught

    So first off you need to get into the command prompt, ie normally you would just click "Start" "Run" and type in "cmd", most likely this is disabled, so lets make it open with a .bat file.

    Right click the desktop, click "New", click "Text Document", in the text document type in "cmd" without the "".



    Now above we have a text document with the letters "cmd" in it, now change the file to .bat from .txt, I used windows commander as I use that all the time.
    ie this file is called "New Text Document (2).txt", it needs to be "New Text Document (2).bat".

    Here we have my new MS Dos file with the cmd command, double click that and we get our command prompt window.



    In the nice shiny black window type in "cd\windows" and hit enter.



    Now type in "regedit" and hit enter and your into the registry editor which opens in a new window.
    Now for the fun bit, if your actually playing in this area with your own pc please remember this is where all the important stuff is that makes your computer tick so to speak, probably not a good idea to randomly delete files that you don't like the name of, but it is the place to come if you got a real bstard trojan or worm or something that your anti virus can't kill or destroy.

    Next click HKEY_CURRENT_USER, now you got loads of scrolling to do as you need to find the timer stuff on the internet cafes pc and, erm, disable it a bit.



    Time to start scrolling and clicking, its all alphabetical and new folders open each time you click one, first click "Appevents" now "software" next "classes" "microsoft" "windows" "current" "version" "internet settings" "policies" "system".
    Now on the right hand side panel right click on "Disable Taskmanager", scroll down to modify and change it to "0".



    Open windows task manager, ie right click the task bar then click "Task Manager", if this is disabled then just press "Ctrl" "Alt" "Delete" and it will open, find the timer, click it and then click "End Process", you now have free internet.

    My girl gets wireless internet and I'm convinced they have a timer on it which logs her off if she is online for extended periods of time. Maybe they have something to save bandwidth and stop people from keeping their unused computers online and slowing down their customers?

    Any thoughts on this?

    Could this change be used to look at that possibility?

    Yes, but you'll be doing it on somebody else's computer Will.

    Go for it.

    And if you didn't like the look of somchai the internet caf cashier, or if he didn't return or even acknowledge your 'khrap', just delete a few random things from in there when yer done.

    Probably easier to hack into a different network.
