This sounds suspicious, why do you need to crash it?

If your program is malfunctioning, you can use control+T to cause it to stop. This won't work on every program, as most security programs won't want you to stop them in this way.

You could use a pickaxe to break the computer. Otherwise, you're out of luck.

If your friends lock is really badly designed, you can crash it by putting quotes in as passwords and such. However good luck.

oh ok thanks anywaysYou could use a pickaxe to break the computer. Otherwise, you're out of luck.
I don't think that would work besides it uses a disk drive….. but usually to get a text lock to break just put in a bunch of characters it should eventually crashIf your friends lock is really badly designed, you can crash it by putting quotes in as passwords and such. However good luck.

It shouldn't crash from a large amount of input, unless they wrote their program incorrectly (ei using recursion instead of loops).
