How to play PoE without Admin privileges?
You need to be able to edit Documents/My Games/Path of Exile at the very least.
I do not suggest gaming at work. (Foruming at work on the other hand...) |

As a network admin myself, I can assure you that nothing you are doing on your work PC is out of my eyes or reach. While key-loggers and screen caps is a grey grey (almost black) zone and I don't usually do it or recommend to my clients, the admin shares on PC (i can see all your files) and network traffic logging and monitoring is standard practice.
As to how to circumvent it - there's few easy ways i can think of: buy an USB storage device, install operating system on it, sysprep it so it auto-detects drivers on your work pc, copy poe on it, boot from it, install drivers on it, get networking working and enjoy. This is of course if your admin didn't disable ext. ports and didn't password protect your BIOS settings from alteration. Alternative would be to reset local administrator password using hiren's or similar, log in as local administrator, and go from there. That's of-course if he didn't disable boot selection or cd/usb booting. If you did it on my network, i'd know about it by next morning, as i have all kinds of email notifications comming in about threats/irregularities happening in my networks, and your boss would know by lunch. |

I got it to work by installing on my home computer and putting the launcher on my laptop, works great.

" You've got that backwards. "Right to work" is Orwellian newspeak of the finest order, and it actually refers to states where that is *not* the case. "Right to work" is also known as "at will employment", and it means that most employees are treated like contractors, with virtually none of the special legal protections that apply to actual employees. At will employees can be terminated without any specific cause, and employees have no recourse unless they can demonstrate that the employer had a cause that was a form of illegal discrimination (and good luck with that, since they don't have to declare a cause in the first place, trollolol... if they say anything, they usually hide behind the phrase 'business needs' and that's the end of that). Yep, that's right. Right to work actually means your employer's right to fire you. Thanks, GOP! |

" Suppose USB port access is not restricted and i use my own internet connection, after removing the local network cable, how can you see what i'm doing? ;) unless you somehow check all wireless traffic in an area (around the firm's location or something) i just don't see how you can do it :P |

" Lulz accomplices. Let me guess you file 100+ reports a day to mods for any bad, icky and gross(ie sex) you see in chat? BTW , the question still works. You response is trolling, spam, and derailing since you wont answer the question. You should be aware of this. http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/298833 - Mods doing what mods do best

" Off topic, but "allowing a business owner to determine the terms of employment for his employees...?" I'm ok with that. |
