Default administration password


-----Original Message-----
My son thought he would be cute and creative and made up
a new administration password for our computer. So cute
he forgot what he entered. We can't upgrade our computer
or change parent control etc. What can we do. He has
tried many different web sites and still no luck. Is
there a computer program we can buy that will help us?
.

I had a same problem, one of our PC guru told me to boot
PC in safe mode and logon as admin. - I don't think it
will ask you for password but if it does, hit enter. Then
change password. Don't forget to create another admin user
with diff. name.
This will help in future with same problem.
