I just installed Microsoft Office. One of my children entered something in
the username, password, domain name fields unknown to me. How can I reset
this to enter new usernam, password and domain name? I cannot use the
program at this point. I have tried deleting the program and reinstalling,
but it keeps giving me an incorrect login message.
 
1. Delete the profile under Control Panel->Mail Icon->Profiles.
2. Create a new one.
3. Teach children to not play on YOUR computer.

Depending on your OS setup a general user account that doesn't have any
administrator privileges as putting unknown passwords into some places can
cause more problems than on this occasion

Problem solved...thanks! RE: Suggestion 3. Have tried electric fence and
barbed wire, but they still slip in there.
 
Depends how resourcefull they are, you can set your sys to ask for password
whenever it starts
