How do i get around login password if i don't know it. To
get to my desk top & not have it pop up again when I turn
my computer on. I have Windows xp professional system.
 
Hi Sue Roe,

The idea behind a secure system is that you cannot logon without the
password. You are expected to remember it. If you cannot logon, please see:

Once you are logged on to a system, you can setup an autologon, but you will
still need to know what your password is (you may need it at a later date
for something like the recovery console as well).

Start/run "control userpasswords2" (without the quotes).

Uncheck the box requiring a username and password, click apply/ok and follow
the prompts to set up a default logon.

ask your parents what the password is...it's obvious they don't want you in
certain things...
