When logging on to Windows XP Home Edition, a screen showing the User name
"Administrator" appears, asking for a password.

I do not know what the password is!

Can anybody help me please?

Many thanks

Steve
 
forgoten password try shutting down your computer and restart at the same
time press f8 continuously will start you in safe mode and allow you to go
into user accounts and reset your password - good luck

Please - don't multipost if you ever have another question. It's annoying
seeing the same unread question from the same person over and over in
multiple groups. Try cross-posting instead! =)

Search - I answered in another newsgroup. ;)

The default is to just press the enter key.
 
I may be mistaken, but, if you have ZA on, the Windows firewall, although
set to be on, is really not. One of the MS-MVP's told me about that.
Usually, dual scanning of email is not advisable......much to often there
will be conflicts with the two apps trying to gain control. As far as ZA
goes, I have been using ZAPro for years now without any problems or program
conflicts, I don't have Micrografix, however. There was a problem with
some of the earlier versions of ZA that would prevent auto SR points from
being created in Windows Me, but, not aware of anything with XP. YMMV.

Please forgive my post with regard to ZA, hit the wrong button.
