I have a shaw cable box, pritty new it was put on a couple of months ago. It has this stupid lock on it that just keeps spinning. I was told you can open it with a bic pen but how. I can post some pics if needed.

Any help would be sweet

lets see the pics

That is a locking terminator. In my system we use something called a gilbert tool to open those. That really isn't actually a lock, it's used to terminate an open tap port, to prevent a leak, and prevent theft. They are used on certain R/E boxes to restrict access. If that was installed correctly, you'll have to break the R/E box to actually gain access, if it was installed incorrectly, you just need to keep twisting. Inside of the lock you'll notice to teeth, you could bend a paper clip, but don't excpect the cable guy to be happy when he removes the store bought cable accessories you weren't supposed to install
