Topic: Technology 4:26 pm EDT, Oct  8, 2003

] A Princeton graduate student said Monday that he has
] figured out a way to defeat new software intended to keep
] music CDs from being copied on a computer %u2014 simply
] by pressing the Shift-key.
]
] In a paper posted on his Web site late Monday, John
] Halderman said the MediaMax CD3 software developed by
] SunnComm Technologies could be defeated on computers
] running the Windows operating system by holding down the
] Shift key, disabling a Windows feature that automatically
] launches the encryption software on the disc.
]
] Halderman said the protection could also be disabled by
] stopping the driver the CD installs when it is first
] inserted into a computer's drive.
