.NET Update Locked Out User Password

[Simvacious Lady]

Good Afternoon:

I require assistance with have a problem I have since updating [through
Windows Automatic Update] .NET. The .NET version is 1.0.3750. Today upon
turning on my computer, my password is not being accepted.

I have gone into Safe Mode to change my password, but thought it would be
better to contact a more knowledgable person before doing so.

Will changing my password in Safe Mode allow me to access Windows XP Home
the usual way even after the .NET update? And if not, if I remove this
update, how do I get a previous version, and will removing the latest
affect my system?

Thank You for any and all assistance anyone can provide in this situation.
Your assistance is Greatly Appreciated.

PS: I have searched through the Microsoft Knowledge Base but cannot find an
answer to solve the problem. Also tried restoring to several previous
restore points but still cannot use password to access Windows XP Home.
Thanks!
