  1. Password "Recovery"


    Hoping this doesn't sound too peculiar .. It is a "real life dilemma.I recently Back in November changed my Micro$oft sign in password due to repeated sign in attempts based in Russia. I failed to WRITE IT DOWN! My current issue is this, we have 2 computers and 2 phones linked to this account. My PC and phone AND my wife's PC and phone. This morning, we both got the latest updates from Microsoft requiring a restart. So, I figured, while my PC was restarting, I would check my email on the wife's PC. Well come to find out, I didn't change the password on her PC, as I don't use it often.I need

  2. hdd password recovery

    howdy. if this isnt the right forum please move it.
    a friend has a 3 year old hp or compaq tower. they called me to help. they are not able to get into the admin accound, because the password was changed. it was changed by them when a popup told them for security they should change thier password.
    after it was changed they could no longer get into the admin account with the password they changed it to, and the computer started sending out emails to everyone on her address list with porn and viagara type adds.
    i ran anti virus and we found 20 trogans, virus, ect. everything comes back clean now, but we still cant get into asdmin account to format drive.she doesnt have a vista system disc, just the recovery partition.
    1.. is there a way to get the password?

    2... if not can i install a new hdd and install from her recovery partition?

    3...will i be able to install new hdd and install vist from my disc or is the mb set up to not alow that?

    thanks for any help, they are on a limited budget and are true friends to me and i would like to help them. thanks! sam
