Forgotten Admin Password!!!!!!

[Guest]

I have a Microdoft Windows XP Home Edition and I forgot my administrator
password. I really NEED to figure out how to get into my account soon. So if
anybody knows any ways to reset the password or something that would be a
really big help thanks.

Simply log in using the built-in Administrator account (which
cannot be deleted) and modify the desired account(s) and use Start > Run

"control userpasswords2" to modify the desired account(s).

By design, the only way to log into the Administrator account of
WinXP Home is to reboot into Safe Mode. For WinXP Pro, pressing
CTRL+ALT+DEL twice at the Welcome Screen will produce the standard login
dialog box.

Failing that, Linux-based password cracking utilities abound on the
Internet, freely available to anyone who can use Google.
