        If they don't have local admin it happens by default I think.

        If they have local admin it gets much harder.

          This is what I thought. It was my understanding that this was the default behaviour.

            Wow - I didn't know you could simply look at the wireless password ever. That seems like a bad thing.

              If you own the PC and have admin rights, not really 🙂 - If you don't own the PC why do you have local admin.

                Why? If the system has a password in it and it is your password, shouldn't you be able to look at it? Why would you want a system that hides your information from you? And since it is willing to tell the password to the wifi system, it seems more important that it tell it to the owner than to an anonymous third party AP.

                  I think that you'll find that if you have the local admin... you do own the PC 😉
