Best shot at getting access to whatever information you're after is probably social engineering in any of it's many forms. But yeah, the whole overwriting victim's BIOS or deploying malware thing should do the trick, too.

as for over writing the bios, not cool . theres some kinda chance your trashing there motherboard if you prevent them from flashing over the bios, say a new cpu comes out for that socket they want, good luck with that . its too far out of the way anyways to just get some password,

You are just about to keylog their activities to try to rape their computer and take over half their online accounts (or I'd guess in Nick P's case, to prove its possible) for your own personal gain. At which point would you begin to care that you might damage their future motherboard upgrade path???
