Hi,

In http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net/, you can found one live CD (Linux) that
is prepared to show the passwords of the all users on the Windows machines.

The problem is that you need to boot with this CD (you need to reboot the
machine).

My recommendation is that you try this CD in another server and if the
result is OK, you can try in the server that you have the problem. I was
tried some times ago and the result was good.

I hope that it's useful for you

Regards

After you've solved your problem, plan ahead and create
a second admin account whose details you lock away in
a safe place. It's the same as with your car: Would you
be prepared to have just one set of keys for it?
