I won bar bets at a conference when the Respondus Lockdown Browser was first released and touted... all you had to do was change the user agent string in whatever browser you wanted to use.
Our nursing faculty really wanted it, I kept saying no because it took me mere moments to bypass and it would've added a ton of complexity to our computer lab environments, etc. They said "well, our students aren't like you, they are nurses not geeks", then I pointed out that they had 140-150 18-21 year old females, and our IT track department was the next building over and full of 18-21 year old males and if they doubted the two groups would intermix they could pull out the pics of the graduating class from 5 years prior and I could point out my then-girlfriend-now-wife, and all it would take is one for the word to get out and any pretense of security would evaporate.
