    Re: locked out of computer

    I have done something idiotic recently that I am ashamed to confess- locked myself out of my own computer (XP). When I realized that I was running with two administrative accounts I wanted to change (limit) one of them for security purposes. However (and tell me if you see this one coming) when I went to user accounts and chose one of them to limit, I discovered to my horror that I could not switch back to my administrator profile. I LOCKED MYSELF OUT OF MY OWN CAR! Anyway I am a computer layman with sub-average experience. I know about Winternals ERD w/Locksmith, however I do not have two-hundred dollars to blow. I am an E-2 class private who may have to deal with terrorists to get into my computer. I need some geek help ASAP.
