what OS are you running?
XP home has no admin PW.
XP and Win2k pro need one - when you fix it, make a password recovery
disk.
Win9x doesn't need a password
WinMe? Is that thing still around?
 
This is a Windows XP newsgroup so the OP is most likely asking about
Windows XP.
There go your last two comments.

Home? Mine needed a password, if yours doesn't it is because you
chose not to set up a password.
The real difference here is Pro asks you to set a password during
installation, Home leaves it blank.
Also a password is not necessary for anyone including Pro
Administrator.
Although having no password is not at all safe computing.

You can do a google search for a program called 'John the Ripper'. It
usually works, but be careful.
