You can also wipe the windows password file, and all sorts of other fun things
with linux liveCDs.

My favorite is to install Linux.

Something i've been wondering about 'why does that not
exist' for a while now: A linux-based 'play-the-game'
dedicated live CD or USB stick....

Let the game be as closed-source as you want, stop to rely
upon what software might or might not be present on a
Win-Whatever computer.

Instead: generate/distribute/sell an USB stick or CD/DVD
with 'the "stuff" needed for the game' as live system.
Linux-live is stable enough by a margin to support the
devices found on a computer to allow comfortable gaming.

I think many a parent with breathe a sigh of relief
knowing that the next game 'the little tyke' will want to
play on momma/poppa's PC will be a fully 'contained'
thing.
