The login has nothing to do with the username on the computer. Access security is separate from Windows security.
If no one intentionally set up security, then you are joined to some workgroup file that has a password set for the 'Admin' user in Access. You don't mention the version, but try the following...
Start, Search and find all *.mdw files on your computer (be sure to include hidden and system folders in the search). Rename every file that you find.
Now open Access (it'll create a pristine mdw file automatically), and then your mdb - you should get no login prompt.
