# Nah
It's Windows 2000 so I can't do the secret administrator thing in safe mode like on XP.

What I need is one of those 80's computers where you could ALWAYS guess the password in three tries.

# Hmmmmm.
Seen similar before but no doubt resetting it rather than just bypassing it will get me in all sorts of trouble.

cheers anyway.

# Exactly.
That's why I was hoping for some advice in a getting-round-photoshop kind of way rather than a busting-through-company-security type thing.

# I often find the best way to get around admin privileges
is to get quite hands on. When I wanted to put potatochop on my PC at work I had to wait til everyone was out at lunch. Then I stuck my knob in the back of it. Worked a treat!*

may not work a treat. May burn you.*

# Try...
using 'administrator' as the password and username.

You'd be surprised at how often this works.
