User boots from his own CD, and mounts the HD -> no security. You disable booting from CD in BIOS -> user changes it back. You set up a password for BIOS -> user opens the box and clear the password by an appropriate jumper. Etc. In short: its impossible to have unbreakable security if your users have physical access to the machine. If you don't trust them, you are doomed.
