password hack

[greendog]

Does anyone know of a program for cracking winXP administrator login passwords?
My nephew decided to set one on one of my machines and then, rather inconveniently, forgot what it was. So now I'm locked out and would appreciate any suggestions that might help.

Ps I'm not just a kid trying to pull a fast one. It's desktop I don't use very often and he was messing about with it for a while playing games and stuff.

when ive set a password in the past other users could get past it by simply not entering a password !

maybe try that ?

Use a linux bootdisk like the one here - http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/austrumi/austrumi-0.9.2.iso?download

Burn the image onto a CD and then boot using that, at the prompt type nt_pass and then set the Admin password to whatever you want :-)
