If this is XP Home, boot into Safe Mode by repeatedly tapping the F8 key
as the computer is starting. This will get you to the right menu. Log
in as Administrator. The default password is a blank. Once you are
logged in, go to the User Accounts applet in Control Panel and make new
passwords for your regular account. Make a password you will remember.
