Local users and groups... users...then right click the user... and set password... (it gives some worning... but didnt read it) or select properties and the diable the account from there If this is what you ment... Falcon...	00falcon (3801)

It hasn't yet occurred to them that they can put their own password in to lock ME out so I am hoping that if they ever do, as the Administrator I will be able to undo that. :p :D	Susan B (19)

219985	2004-03-04 01:01:00	Of course the kids will have shoulder surfed and know the adnministator password. :D You'll know when they change that. :D	Graham L (2)
219986	2004-03-05 06:05:00	Hey John W, I'll let everyone on a secret, if you have Admin rights under any user can you reset the Admin Password :P As well as disabling accounts and auto-login. Go start | run and type control userpasswords2 I think everyone should look at this, WinXP and possibly Win2k. Noel Nosivad	Noel Nosivad (389)
219987	2004-03-05 06:22:00	control userpasswords2 Doesn't seem to do anything on Win2K	zqwerty (97)
219988	2004-03-05 08:46:00	2k doesnt have a "control userpasswords2" only XP	00falcon (3801)
